Posting a New Log

xxxxxMost of this is self-explanatory. The two fiddly fields are gamedate and categories.

  1. Gamedate will take input in the form of YYYY.MM.DD and nothing else. You must place it somewhen for Template:RP Logs to know what you're talking about. If you want alternate date text, you can put something in for gamedatename and it will replace the normal date on the log page. If the day, month or year of your scene is uncertain, fill in that section with "0000" or "00" and the template will know what you mean.
  2. Categories requires a comma-delimited list of the categories (not [[Category:]] tags, but the names of the spheres to which the log is relevant; the example below should explain plenty and a list of extant log categories can be found at Category:RP Logs) into which you want to place the log. The advantage of using the categories parameter instead of manually adding categories is that the categories parameter will automatically make it so that the categories sort the page by its name rather than its namespace (which will always turn up under 'L').

xxxxxSummary should be a scene summary or setting. Cast should be a list of the participants.

{{ Logs
| cast = 
| summary = 
| gamedate = YYYY.MM.DD
| gamedatename = 
| subtitle = 
| location = 
| categories = Citizens, Xavier's School, Friends of Humanity, X-Men, Brotherhood of Mutants, Morlocks, Hellfire Club, Mutants, Humans
| log = (Put the entirety of your log text here.)
