Template:Quest Header

Due to the sensitive nature of this template and the fact that it is used on a large number of pages, it has been semi-protected to prevent site-wide damage by vandal bots. Editors: In order to minimize the impact on our servers, please use sandboxes to make and test changes to widely used templates before deployment. For more information, please see this article's talk page.

Summary

Display an informative table about a given quest. This should be applied at the top of all quest pages.

Parameters

Previously, some parameters were lower-case while others were mixed-case. These have all been switched to lower-case, although the mixed-case parameters will continue to work normally. For consistency, lower-case is preferred, since that's what's in use for most templates.

Quest Header

GENERAL
addabove addbelow	optional	Anything that should be added above or below the quest information table.
addtrail	optional	Adds additional categories or pages to the trail.
description	required	A title sentence for the page, also shown by {{Mission Link}}. Activities must match the target objective exactly, without any added linking (or period).
giver	optional	The NPC(s) purportedly giving the quest. When more than one, specify them alphabetically separated by HTML line breaks.

nosave	optional	Do not #save these details.
sortkey	optional	For categories.
started	Activities required	How this activity is started.
target	Activities optional	If this objective points to a mission, person, or place (default is current page). When more than one, specify them alphabetically separated by HTML line breaks. These should not be formatted as a link, and will be displayed by {{Icon Link}}.
tech	optional	Technical field, such as \Random Encounters\ or \Space Encounters\.
type	required	Standardized and added to the trail. Activities, Factions, MainQuest, Mission, SideQuest, or NONE (per the CK). For NONE: optionally Encounters or Scenes (default Quests). Singular, plural, Main/Side Mission, and Main/Side Quest should also work.

places	optional	Specify additional places separated by HTML line breaks, usually in walkthrough order or the same order as multiple givers. The required place= will be displayed first, followed by these additional places. They should not be formatted as links, and will be displayed by {{In Place}}. (See Examples.)
