There are a few parts to creating a book page. This guide will go through them one by one.

== Book ==

To add a book to a page, copy & paste this code:

<pre>{{Book
|Your text here.
}}</pre>

Your text must stay on one line in the editor. To add line breaks, add <br/> wherever you'd like one, same as pressing enter in-game.

== Infobox ==

It's recommended to also add an infobox to share additional information about the book. Here's the code:

<pre>{{InfoboxBook
|title = Title
|writtenby = [[NAME]] or Unknown
|location = [[NAME]]
|series = [[LINK]] to a series/collection
|previous = [[LINK]] to previous entry
|next = [[LINK]] to next entry
|appearance = Lore-wise, what it looks like
|desc = A description of the contents
}}</pre>

Any of the parameters can be deleted or kept blank and they won't display.

For series or collections of books, you can add links to the previous/next entry in the collection and so folks can easily click through in order. See how to create a page for series and how to link it in the next section.

== Categories ==

For every book, add <nowiki>[[Category:Books]][[Category:Books by NAME]]</nowiki> to the bottom of the page, replacing "NAME" with the character. If the author is unknown, use "Books with unknown author" instead.

If the book is a part of a series or collection (such as books that are meant to be read in a particular sequence or are all found in the same place), add <nowiki>[[Category:SERIES NAME]]</nowiki> as well. Then, to link to the category page in the infobox, use <nowiki>[[:Category:SERIES NAME]]</nowiki> Take note of the colon at the beginning!

If you don't want "Category:" showing up in the link or want the name to display differently, add a | like this: <nowiki>[[:Category:SERIES NAME|Displayed text]]</nowiki> replacing "Displayed text" with whatever you want the link to say.

Once you've created a new category, you can go to its page and edit it. If you've just made a new "Books by X," add <nowiki>[[Category:Books]]</nowiki> to the category page, so it shows up as a subfolder in the list of books! For series, write a description of the collection if you'd like, and add <nowiki>[[Category:Book series]]</nowiki> instead.

== Full template ==

<pre>{{InfoboxBook
|title = Title
|writtenby = [[NAME]] or Unknown
|location = [[NAME]]
|series = [[LINK]] to a series/collection
|previous = [[LINK]] to previous entry
|next = [[LINK]] to next entry
|appearance = Lore-wise, what it looks like
|desc = A description of the contents
}}

{{Book
|Your text here.
}}

[[Category:Books]][[Category:Books by NAME]]</pre>
