Usage
{{Bob | noimg= y | bobimg= | imgwidth= | imgcap= | border= | color= | title= | aka= | dev= | pub= | system= | genre= | players= | version= | nochangelog= y | releases= {{release |system= |region= |edition= |date= |code= }} }}
When creating a page for a game, copy and paste this at the top of the article, edit the right fields and remove arguments that don't belong. To add more releases to the bob, copy this code:
{{release |system= |region= |edition= |date= |code= }}
...paste it underneath the existing {{release}}
template, and fill in the relevant fields.
Legend
- noimg: Use this to omit the title screen, box art or default placeholder entirely. Generally shouldn't be used outside of specific circumstances.
- bobimg: Image filename (e.g. "Filename.png")
- imgwidth: Width of the above image, in pixels (e.g. 320px)
- imgcap: Witty caption for the chosen image, if it exists.
- border: Use this to change the colour of the border, if you want to theme the bob around a specific game. Hope you know your hex colours!
- color: Changes the colour of the header text, in case the border colour you've chosen makes it hard to read. Again, hope you know your hex colours!
- title: The game's title. This will use the page's title if left blank, but you may want to fill this in if the page has disambiguation terms.
- aka: The game's title in other regions (e.g. "LiBits! Big Adventure (JP)")
- dev: The game's developer.
- pub: The game's publisher.
- system: The system the game was released for.
- genre: The genre for the game. If the game is multi-genre, separate with commas (e.g. "Racing, Sandbox")
- players: The number of players that can play at once.
- version: The current version for the game. If the game was never updated, put 1.00.
- nochangelog: If the game was never updated or the changelog hasn't been written yet, use this to omit the "Read more..." bubble that appears next to the version number.
- releases: Used for providing information on each release of the game, be it the launch version or a special edition released later on. This should not be used for Game Updates.
- system: The system this release of the game can be played on.
- region: The region for this release. Defaults to "International" if omitted or left blank.
- edition: If this edition is different from the inital launch version, use this to specify which edition it is (e.g. "Game of the Year Edition"). Otherwise, omit this field.
- date: The date this release was, well, released. Sorted using the YYYY/MM/DD date format. (e.g. 2010-04-16).
- code: The release's product code or Title ID (e.g. BCES00611). This will be different depending on the region and whether it was a digital download or on physical media, so do some research!
