Help:Layouts/Characters: Difference between revisions

When creating character pages, name them in a First Last format.

Character pages are not meant to replace character biographies. They should be a quick, useful summary of their role in the game with helpful links.

Note:

Do fill in birthYear, birthMonth, birthDay and House, this will allow the Character infobox to automatically assign year/class of categories as well as house/school and house/school alumni categories.
Check the Characters Category to see other categories characters can be placed in.
- Do not create a category that only one character fits into.
