Instructions

  • To add a shop not already listed edit the page using the Edit tab at the top of the page, insert {{:EGShop:<Shop Name>}} in the proper location (alphabetical) and save the page. This will create a broken link on the page to the new shop.
  • To edit the shop, click on the broken link and insert the copy/paste code from Template:egshop (copied here) in the code field and fill in the proper information:

Copy/paste code:

==Shop Name==
{{egshop|
|shopname=
|look=
|location=
}}
{{RoomDescription|
|roomname=
|desc=
|exits=
}}
{{sign|sign=}}
<blockquote>
{{Container|container=}}
</blockquote>
  • Replace Shop Name between the "==" with the proper shop name.
  • Since it is much more likely that there will be exits instead of paths, only exits are in the copy/paste code, but if it is paths, change exits to paths.
  • Use templates from Category:Shop table templates or generate tables under the Container template.
  • In the section (between the <blockquote> tags in the copy/paste code below), insert shop data by using template:container to insert a container name underlined (this can be used as many times as needed). Below that you can insert data using the Category:Shop table templates or a freshly generated table. This site is highly recommended to convert tables or tab separated values to wiki code (uncheck format header rows). Replace the first line of every table generated with {| {{prettytable}} or revise as needed.
  • Keep all shop data between the blockquote tags in each room. To add a new room, repeat all applicable code from the RoomDescription template to the bottom.
  • To edit existing shop listings, click on the edit link next to each shop section (you must be logged in).
  • Saving the shop page will automatically add that information to this page if the initial step was done properly.

Discussion

This page was made in this manner because of what happened with Ebon Gate 2009 shop listing. That page cannot be saved with any further edits. VANKRASN39 (talk) 00:30, 15 October 2015 (CDT)
