Created page with "Here on ZFGCpedia, we deploy use of some custom-written templates. This page is to provide documentation on those templates. = Game Template = Template:Game The game temp..."

New page

Here on ZFGCpedia, we deploy use of some custom-written templates. This page is to provide documentation on those templates.

= Game Template =
[[Template:Game]]
The game template is used to create a metadata info "badge" of sorts detailing information on the given title.

== Syntax ==
In a wiki article, to employ the user of the game template, the following has to be entered:
{{
Game
|title=
|release=
|genre=
|developer=
|publisher=
|ESRB=
|platform=
<code><nowiki>
}}</nowiki></code>

*title - For specifying the title of the game.
Ex: |title=Legend of Zelda
*release - For sepcifying the release date. Append a <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code> should you want to add a line break for additional release date information.
Ex: |release=NA: July 1, 1999
*genre - For specifying the genre of the title.
