Revision as of 22:41, 15 September 2006
This is the format for biographies on the SamuraiWiki.
Information goes on the top of the page, before the actual biography:
* ''Born: [[1534]]''
* ''Died: [[1582]]''
* ''Titles: Owari no kami, Kazusa no suke, Udaijin (1577) Sadaijin (1578), Daijô daijin (1578)''
* ''Childhood Name: Kipposhi''
* Japanese: 織田信長 ''(Oda Nobunaga)''
This is the result:
- Born: 1534
- Died: 1582
- Titles: Owari no kami, Kazusa no suke, Udaijin (1577) Sadaijin (1578), Daijô daijin (1578)
- Childhood Name: Kipposhi
- Japanese: 織田信長 (Oda Nobunaga)
Any missing information should be left out completely.
The biography should have at least one heading if there is going to be a "xyz in Fiction" section at the bottom:
==The Life of Brian==
(Brian's biography)
==Brian in Fiction==
===Film===
* ''film name'' Year
===Television===
* ''Show Name'' Year
===Other Appearances===
* (TV or Movies where the historical figure is a corallary or guest character)
And so on.
A complete bio should look something like this:
Brian
The Life of Brian
(Brian's biography)
Brian in Fiction
Film
- film name Year (Genre)
Television
- Show Name Year (Genre)
Books
- Book Name Year (Genre)
Other Appearances
- (TV, Books, Video Games, Anime, or Movies where the historical figure is a corallary or guest character)
Other useful information:
Code: [[Oda Nobunaga|Nobunaga's]] house.
Result: Nobunaga's house.
Code: The castle that was taken was [[Maruyama Castle|Maruyama]].
Result: The castle that was taken was Maruyama.
Code: The [[Imagawa Clan|Imagawa]] invaded in 1565.
Result: The Imagawa invaded in 1565.
Obviously, when the text calls for the full name or full castle name, just link like normal [[Oda Nobunaga]].
Also, until someone says it would look better or should be done that way, we will only link the first occurence of a link - for example, the first Oda Nobunaga will be [[Oda Nobunaga]], but after that, no more occurences will be linked.
