Templates

This page contains information on the standards for all pages relating to items and equipment.

Template:

The following templates should be used for items whenever possible.

• Template:Armor
• Template:CraftedItem
• Template:Item
• Template:Shield
• Template:Weapon

Article Names:

To enable the Template:ShopItem to work correctly, all item articles should omit any capitalization from the name and instead use the name= field to make any corrections.

Articles, "A", "An" and "Some", should not be a part of the Page name, although the "name=" field should contain this info. Quantities, such as "pair of" "set of", should be included in the page name.
