Using this template will automatically update the list of creative works (with a brief delay). Due to technical restrictions, the "author" field cannot contain any wiki markup. This plain text name will be reflected on the sortable list. Use the "author-displayed" field within the template to add a link to character pages on the creative work page itself.

Parameters

  • Author
  • Author-displayed (optional)
  • Title
  • Type (optional)
    • essay
    • letter
    • periodical
    • poem or poetry
    • short story
    • song
    • storyline
    • vignette


Putting in the optional value for the type parameter will automatically categorize the work into the appropriately-related category.

Character Vignettes

Character vignettes are vignettes posted by players for their characters. They should not use this template. Character vignettes are considered a form of "off screen roleplay" instead of a creative work. These may be tied to a storyline, but must always be tied to the character first and foremost. This is done by setting the vignette up as a subpage to their character page. Page naming standard should be as follows:

Character name (instance)/Vignette name

For more information on character vignettes related to storylines, see Help:Storyline guidelines.
