Template:Book sections/doc
{{Book sections}} produces a list of contents for a publication. It takes its information from the publication's fact database entry. This template employs {{Book sections/Section}} to render each section.
Template
Basic
This template uses the Facts article with the same name as the current article by default. Assuming we are on the article City of Seven Spears, using:
{{Book sections}}
is equivalent to manually specifying:
{{Book sections|Facts:City of Seven Spears}}
which results in:
These sections are
Advanced
To display the template for a specific Facts article, such as Facts:Dark Archive (sourcebook), pass the Facts article name as the first parameter:
{{Book sections|Facts:Dark Archive (sourcebook)}}
which results in:
Facts formatting
This template formats certain facts in a specific manner.
Titles
Section titles can contain wikitext.
Authors
If multiple authors worked on a section, list each author separately.
- If editing the Facts source, use a semicolon-delimited list of plain text without wikilink markup in the Author parameter of {{Facts/Book/Section}}.
- If editing the Facts as a form, enter each author separately in the Author field of the section's entry in the Sections key.
For example, for a section with two authors, that section's Facts source should list:
{{Facts/Book/Section ... |Author=Wolfgang Baur;Greg A. Vaughan
This template then renders the authors of that section as "Wolfgang Baur, Greg A. Vaughan" as on the article Fortress of the Stone Giants.
Subsections
If a section contains subsections, add them as separate Section items and enable the Is subsection Boolean parameter.
If editing a Facts article's source, the parameter name is case sensitive and begins with a capital I:
{{Facts/Book/Section|Is subsection=y
Any other spelling or capitalization will have no effect on the section.
