* '''[[Colonies|colony]]''': The character's home colony.
}}
* '''birthplace''': If the character was not born on one of [[The Twelve Colonies]], then use this parameter instead of "colony".
|- style="text-align: center;"
* '''birthname''': The full birthname of the character.
{{#if:{{{primecon|}}}|
* '''birthdate''': The date of birth. Approximate. Link to a [[Timeline]] page if needed.

* '''callsign''': The character's "callsign" if he or she is a pilot.
}}
* '''nickname''': The character's "nickname" if applicable.
|-
* '''seen''': The episode in which the character first appears. Do not wikify.
{{#if:{{{debug|}}}|
* '''pseen''': If the episode name is different than the article name, this is what will displayed. Do not wikify.

* '''death''': When, Where, and How they died. Please wikify the episode.
}}
* '''parents''': Who are their parents.
|}{{#if:{{{sortkey|}}}|{{DEFAULTSORT:{{{sortkey}}}}}}}</includeonly><noinclude>
* '''siblings''': Who is related to them.
* '''children''': How many children does this character have.
* '''marital status''': What's their current marital status.
* '''familytree''': Set this to '''Y''' if they have a family tree. The section in the article should be <code>Family tree</code>.

* '''rank''': Current rank if in the military.
* '''serial''': Serial number, if in the military.
* '''actor''': Actor/actress who plays this character. Please wikify.

* '''sortkey''': This tells the category system where this entry should go. (For [[William Adama]], the sortkey would be "Adama, William"—without quotes—thus telling the software to alphabetize by his last name.)
 
==== RDM ====
* '''cylon''': Insert '''Y''' to indicate that this character is a Cylon.
* '''5cylon''': Insert '''Y''' to indicate that this character is a member of the [[Final Five]].
* '''hcylon''': Insert '''Y''' to indicate that this character is a Cylon Hybrid.

= Documentation =
==== Separate Continuity ====
This template is the primary infobox for character articles. It provides a standard layout for character stats, media links, and continuity data, with integrated support for automated genealogy trees via the [[Extension:Genealogy|Genealogy Extension]].


== Parameter Descriptions ==
* '''sepcon''': Insert '''Y''' to indicate that a [[Battlestar Wiki:Separate continuity|separate continuity]] article is available on the subject.
* '''sepcon title''': The name of the article on the subject in the separate continuity. Do not encase in any link syntax.
** ''Note:'' Anything encased in parentheses will be "piped," thus anything including or after the "(" will be ignored when outputting a name, just like an automatically piped link. Example: <code>Vella (TOS alternate reality)</code> will only print <code>Vella</code>. It will '''not affect''' the actual link itself, only the '''printed output''' in the template.
* '''series''': Insert the series acronym that the separate continuity is a part of.  Values are '''TOS''', '''1980''', and '''RDM'''.
: '''Note:''' This is only for articles where the name crosses more than one continuity. For instance, "Boxey" is both a character in the Original Series as well as the Re-imagined Series. So an article on Boxey in the separate continuity material for the Original Series would use the "TOS" acronym, and thus would facilitate a link to [[Boxey (TOS alternate)]].


=== Header & Display ===
==== Primary Continuity ====
* '''title''': The name displayed at the top. Defaults to the page name.
* '''series / series 2 / series 3''': Determines which series icons (e.g., RDM, TOS, CAP) appear in the header. Supports up to three icons for characters appearing across multiple continuities.
* '''photo / photo 2 / photo 3 / photo 4''': The filename of the character image(s).
* '''photo_label / photo 2_label / photo 3_label / photo 4_label''': The (short) tab label to use for the tabber that aligns with the character image(s).
* '''caption / caption 2 / caption 3 / caption 4''': The text displayed directly beneath the photo(s).
* '''sortkey''': Used for category alphabetization (e.g., <code>Adama, William</code>).
* '''spoilers''': Set to **Y** to wrap sensitive rows (Death, Last Appearance, etc.) in a collapsible spoiler toggle.


=== Biography ===
: ''This is meant for articles on ''separate continuity'' characters, i.e. {{alt|Daniel Novacek}}.''
* '''name''': The character's common name.
** **Note:** If any Cylon flag (<code>cylon</code>, <code>5cylon</code>, etc.) is set to **Y**, the label for this field automatically changes from **Name** to **Human Name**.
* '''age''': Approximate age of the character.
* '''colony''': The character's home colony (e.g., <code>Caprica</code>).
* '''birthplace''': Used if the character was born outside of the Twelve Colonies.
* '''birthname''': The full name given at birth.
* '''birthdate''': The visual display of their birth date in the infobox.
* '''seen / pseen / seenref''':
** <code>seen</code>: The page name of their first appearance.
** <code>pseen</code>: Piped text for the appearance link.
** <code>seenref</code>: Use this to provide a custom citation or override the link entirely.
* '''lastseen / plastseen / lastseenref''': Similar to above, but for the character's final appearance.
* '''death''': Circumstances of death. Wikify the episode title if applicable.
* '''callsign''': The pilot's tactical name (e.g., <code>Starbuck</code>).
* '''nickname''': Other casual names.


=== Relationships ===
* '''primecon''': Insert '''Y''' to indicate that a [[Battlestar Wiki:Canon|primary continuity]] article is available on the subject.
* '''parents / siblings / children''': General lists for the infobox display.
* '''primecon title''': The name of the article on the subject in the primary continuity. Do not encase in any link syntax.
* '''step_parents''': Visual display of step-parents.
** ''Note:'' Anything encased in parentheses will be "piped," thus anything including or after the "(" will be ignored when outputting a name, just like an automatically piped link. Example: <code>Adama (TOS)</code> will only print <code>Adama</code>. It will '''not affect''' the actual link itself, only the '''printed output''' in the template.
* '''marital status''': Marital condition (Single, Married, Widowed).
* '''series''': Insert the series acronym that the primary continuity is a part of.  Values are '''TOS''', '''1980''', and '''RDM'''.
* '''familytree''': Set to **Y** to add a "View" link that jumps to the article's <code>#Family tree</code> section.
: '''Note:''' This is only for articles where the name crosses more than one continuity. For instance, "Boxey" is both a character in the Original Series as well as the Re-imagined Series. So an article on Boxey in the primary continuity material for the Original Series would use the "TOS" acronym, and thus would facilitate a link to [[Boxey (TOS)]].  


=== Military & Professional ===
[[Category:Infobox|Character]]
* '''role''': The character's primary job or function.
[[Category:Templates using ParserFunctions|{{PAGENAME}}]]
* '''rank''': Military rank (e.g., <code>Commander</code>).

* '''media''': The key for linking to external media collections.
* '''sepcon / primecon''': Set to **Y** to enable cross-continuity links.
* '''sepcon title / primecon title''': The exact page title for the character in the other continuity.
