templates: From Prisoner

It is all new to me too. I'm still experimenting.

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Template is the help text for templates, which is where I started. Templates are just regular pages with the prefix Template:, so the page Template:released is included where I put { {released} } (without the extra spaces).

You can put parameters in, but I haven't figured out the details yet.

And unfortunately, I'm out of time for the moment, so I can't play more. :)

Spin - I've created a cardRequired template and used it in the Series 1 section. Check it out and let me know if it makes life easier.

I have answered your question on my user talk page. You can check it out.

items by theme

Spin, I notice you're now adding items by category. I really like this idea, but I'm worring on two counts:

• I think that page is going to get big, and will need splitting
• I know you're doing cross-references. I wonder if it might make more sense to do each item as an individual page (just the table row), and include it on every page where it might make sense. So you just need to update the page once and the change will show upe everywhere its included.
