Templates for marking and managing spoilers
Usage guidelines:
Situation | Suggestion |
---|---|
An article contains various spoilers out in the open | put a warning at the top of the page, such as template:spoilerwarning |
An article contains a spoiler out in the open | wrap it template:spoiler and template:endspoiler (this is depreciated, see next rows) |
An article contains a spoiler out in the open: simple text, links, images, etc | wrap it in a simple concealer box, such as template:spoilerbox |
An article contains a spoiler out in the open: with tables or complex formatting | wrap it in a concealer box ends, such as template:spoilerboxbegin and template:spoilerboxend |
An article contains a link to another article with spoilers on it | wrap the link in a labeller, such as template:spoilerlink |
Note: there is no need to add the article to a spoiler category, these templates do that automatically.
Classes of spoilers:
Class | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
none | normal text | This is a good sturdy sword that does a fair amount of damage |
spoiler | gives away plot/puzzle/location details | The sword can be found under the bush behind the house |
mechanics | discusses game mechanics | The sword does 2d8 damage, has a weight of 3 and speed of 5 |
technical | technical details about the game or engine | The sword icon is drawn in 16 colors and stored in sword.gif. It's details are in a table in weapons.dat. |
For articles/link with multiple types of spoilers, use the spoiler category as a generic catch-all.
