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

A Note on templates: You do NOT need to satisfy each variable in order for a template to draw. Click here to see examples

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=
 }}
  • title - For specifying the title of the game.

Ex: |title=Legend of Zelda

  • release - For sepcifying the release date. Append a <br /> should you want to add a line break for additional release date information(this applies to any entry here).

Ex: |release=NA: July 1, 1999

  • genre - For specifying the genre of the title.
  • developer - Who are the developer(s) working on the game
  • ESRB - ESRB rating, if applicable.
  • platform - Platform(s) the title was published on.
