This template relies on the current pattern of release dates. It is rare for two or more different groups of items to have the same release date - in other words, usually one group is released on a given date. If an exception occurs, simply manually input the source and date data into the template on the page(s) that are "in the minority," or just choose one that seems to require fewer edits. For example, a box with several different accessories should have priority over an individual type of item or smaller group.

Oddities include:

*[[Hoptimer Monster Pocket]] vs. [[Blooming Prize Box]] recolor content on date: ''16 April 2014''
+
::The Prize Box takes priority and is included in the template. The Hoptimer data is entered manually.
+
*[[Construct Prize Box]] content vs. [[Platinum Lockbox]] content on date: ''01 October 2014 ''
+
::The Lockbox takes priority and is included in this template. The Construct Prize Box data is entered manually.</noinclude>

[edit] [purge] Template documentation

Usage

To display date information and a link to an official external post. External posts are usually Admin forum posts.

For internal sources, use [[internal linking]] or {{Release}} as appropriate instead of DoRSource.

Notes

Edit this template to add or fix data regarding release information on published pages.

This template relies on an established pattern of release dates. There are a few overlap dates that have /2 as part of the date entry. If a forum post seems to lead to the wrong place, investigate the template code to see if /2 needs to be used instead of the raw date.

This template is essentially a linking template. It is designed to be used within other templates which have release date information. See templates in which DoRSource is used for usage details. Its purpose is to rapidly update multiple pages at once with Date of Release information.
