Parameters[edit]

Field Name Aliases Optional or Required? Description Example
Id - Recommended An ID for the reference, so it can be reused. Make it specific to your particular citation, so that it does not conflict with other IDs, and so other editors can understand it. It should always be put at the start. ReachJFO
1 (unnamed field) Media, MediaLink Required The name of the piece of media that was being marketed. This field supports the use of Halopedia's acronym system, so CE can be used in place of Halo: Combat Evolved. If the game's page name includes a suffix, please include the MediaText field too. Halo 3
MediaText MediaLinkText (Deprecated) Required only if Media includes a suffix If the Media page includes a suffix, this field should be filled in with what the display text of the link should be - i.e. the page name, but without the suffix. Halo 3
2 (unnamed field) Campaign Optional The marketing campaign that the cited piece of marketing was a part of. Believe
3 (unnamed field) Ad Required The particular advert or piece of marketing being cited. Shooting a Hero
Detail - Optional Any additional details you wish to specifically highlight about the cited game element. JFO is a player customisation item
Quote - Optional Used to cite a particular quote from the game that supports your citation. Designed and tested at Beweglichrüstungsysteme this helmet is fully compatible with all armor systems.
Quotee QuoteeLink Optional If Quote is used, this field can be used to specify who or what is being quoted. This field can receive a page name, in which case it will create a link. If the page name includes a suffix please include the QuoteeText. Official description
