| | I have a plan to enable the use of spoiler tags within this system and still retain the consistancy offered by the s-bef, s-ttl and s-aft sub-templates. Essentially, four templates will be available for use in between <nowiki>{{start box}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{end box}}</nowiki>: |
| Use a single block of succession boxes per article. Begin each succession box block with <nowiki>{{start box}}</nowiki> and end it with <nowiki>{{end box}}</nowiki>. In between, you may place as many instances of <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki> as is necessary. Use the following syntax:
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>{{succession box|before=PREDECESSOR|title=TITLE|after=SUCCESSOR}}</nowiki>, replacing "PREDECESSOR", "TITLE" and "SUCCESSOR" as appropriate. For example, this is [[Lee Adama]]'s succession box, which includes two non-contiguous stints as ''Galactica'''s CAG, and two subsequent positions.
| |
| | |
| <pre><nowiki>
| |
| {{start box}} | |
| {{succession box|before=[[Jackson Spencer|Jackson "Ripper" Spencer]]|title=Commander, Air Group of the [[Galactica type battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]''|after=[[George Birch|George "Catman" Birch]]}}
| |
| {{succession box|before=[[George Birch|George "Catman" Birch]]|title=Commander, Air Group of the [[Galactica type battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]''|after=[[Kara Thrace|Kara "Starbuck" Thrace]]}}
| |
| {{succession box|before=''(unknown, eventually [[Jack Fisk]])''|title=Executive Officer of the [[Mercury class battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]''|after=''(unknown, eventually [[Anastasia Dualla]])}}
| |
| {{succession box|before=[[Barry Garner]]|title=Commanding Officer of the [[Mercury class battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]''|after=Incumbent}}
| |
| {{end box}}</nowiki></pre>
| |
| | |
| The <nowiki>{{spoiltext}}</nowiki> template will not work within succession boxes. Instead, three other templates are available which may be used in place of <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki>. These are:
| |
|
| |
|
| | *<nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki> behaves exactly as this template does currently. |
| *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler)}}</nowiki> hides the entire section behind a spoiler tag. | | *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler)}}</nowiki> hides the entire section behind a spoiler tag. |
| *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-bef)}}</nowiki> hides the predecessor. | | *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-bef)}}</nowiki> hides the predecessor. |
| *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-aft)}}</nowiki> hides the successor. | | *<nowiki>{{succession box (spoiler-aft)}}</nowiki> hides the successor. |
|
| |
|
| The syntax for these is identical to the standard <nowiki>{{succession box}}</nowiki> template. --[[User:April Arcus|April Arcus]] 13:03, 27 March 2006 (CST)
| | I will be implementing this presently, and will try to avoid disrupting existing operations. Please feel free to ask any questions below. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 11:19, 27 March 2006 (CST) |
