Description[edit]
This template should be used when citing games. For other citation templates, see Template:Ref. For more reference templates, see Template:Ref. Specialised templates exist for citing more specific game elements such as Halo Infinite open-world missions/quests, multiplayer maps, firefight maps, Spartan Ops missions or gametypes. If you really need to cite something generic from a game however, game exists for that purpose.
Usage[edit]
Citing a generic level[edit]
{{Ref/Level|Id=H5MeridianStation|H5G|Meridian Station}}
Citing a level with a suffix in the link[edit]
{{Ref/Level|Id=H3Cortana|H3|Cortana (level)|Cortana}}
Citing a level from DLC, Title Update, or a particular edition of the game[edit]
{{Ref/Level|Id=HW2OS|HW2|Section=Halo Wars 2: Operation: SPEARBREAKER|SectionLinkText=Operation: SPEARBREAKER|Gatecrashers}}
Citing a level with a detail (Optional)[edit]
{{Ref/Level|Id=H5MeridianStation|H5G|Meridian Station|Detail=Football Easter Egg}}
Citing a level with a quote (Optional)[edit]
{{Ref/Level|Id=H5MeridianStation|H5G|Meridian Station|Quote=So Apogee came under attack, and then a UNSC ship was seen heading that way.|Quotee=Olympia Vale}}
Fields[edit]
| Field Name | Aliases | Optional or Required? | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Id | - | Recommended | An ID for the reference, so it can be reused. Make it tied to the source so it does not conflict with other IDs. Always put this at the start. While not Required it is recommended to give every source a unique Id for future use.
|
HW2OSG |
| 1 (unnamed field) | Game, Gamelink | Required | The name of the game being cited. 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 GameText field too.
|
Halo Wars 2 |
| GameText | GameLinkText (Deprecated) | Required only if Game includes a suffix | If the Game 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: Reach
|
| Section | - | Required when applicable | A specific part or section of the game that's being cited, including DLC expansions or specific limited editions of the game. This field accepts page names and will automatically create a link if the page exists - use SectionText to control the display text for said link. | Halo Wars 2: Operation: SPEARBREAKER |
| SectionText | SectionLinkText (Deprecated) | Required only if Game includes prefix or suffix that needs removed | If the Game page includes a prefix or suffix that needs removed, 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.
|
Operation: SPEARBREAKER
|
| 2 (unnamed field) | Level | Required | This is the main reason for this template. Put in the name of the level. If the level shares its name with another page it may feature one of the following suffixes at the end of it. | Gatecrashers |
| 3 (unnamed field) | LevelLinkText | Required only if Game includes a suffix | This is the main reason for this template. Put in the name of the level. If the level shares its name with another page it may feature one of the following suffixes at the end of it. | Gatecrashers |
| Detail | - | Optional | Used to describe the item in question. | Controllers appeared in this mission. |
| Quote | - | Optional | When citing a particular quote from the game, this should be used. However, it cannot be used if the Details field is used.
|
Vaughan, heads up. We've got a new flavor of Sentinel. |
| Quotee | - | Optional | This is to put who or what said a "quote" | Quinn |
| QuoteeText | QuoteeLinkText | Optional but required if you want to be specific | This is to change the text used for who the Quotee is. | Warrant Officer Quinn |
| Suffix | - | Optional | Used if you need to add anything miscellaneous, archive links, anything really. | Anything really. |
