Parameters

Required

icon name = the filename of the item's icon image

official name = the full name of the entity as seen in-game

tooltip name = the filename of the item's tooltip (or in the case of creatures, overworld) image

description = the official description of the item as seen in the tooltip in-game.

DoR = Date of Release. We only use month and year for these, that's informative and takes up less space. Extra curious users can find information via the box info or patch notes.

notes = miscellaneous information such as date of release.

requirements = what Guild Hall Wing Expansions, Player Rank, etc. are needed to get the item.

acquisition = where to get the item from. Birdsong Emporium? A specific box? Supply Depot, during an event?

cost = cost to obtain in crowns, energy, tokens, etc. or just leave it blank if it's randomly from a box.

rotation = a value such as S, SWE, NSWE, ALL, or WANDERING. Indicates the cardinal directions a furniture can be rotated. Perhaps this is not extremely important information, but it is desired by several users.

Feel free to adjust these parameters into different sortable columns if users desire that anytime in the future.

Optional

<br/> puts in line breaks without breaking template or page. So does putting space into the entry field, but neither of these are recommended.

"placed:"

|tooltip name = Blue Lazy Snipe-Placed

|tooltip name = Green Winterfest Tree

"placed" simply means that the image is of the item in the overworld. We usually want the "placed" version for Creatures, since the tooltip view for creatures is a cage, and that's not very informative. Other furniture items use the tooltip. This is useful because information about the scale of the item is incorporated into the tooltip images of furniture.

Usage

For pages of furniture families. Keeps things neat, organized, and informative. The number of variable plug-n-chug aspects is due to the large number of disambiguation pages in relation to furniture and other token/gear/etc. items, as well as whether or not the editor wishes to show a tooltip or overworld view, officially.

Example:

{{FurnitureTable/start}} {{FurnitureTable |icon name = Blue Lazy Snipe |official name = Blue Lazy Snipe |tooltip name = Blue Lazy Snipe-Placed |description = A quietly resting snipe that will stay where it's placed. |notes = This item was introduced in November 2012. |acquisition = Birdsong Emporium <br/><br/> Must have at least one of the 5F wings installed. |cost = 293,730 Crowns }} {{Table/end}}

Produces:

Name	Visual	Rotation	Acquisition	Description & Notes
{{{name}}}			Birdsong Emporium Must have at least one of the 5F wings installed. 293,730 Crowns	Description: A quietly resting snipe that will stay where it's placed. This item was introduced in November 2012.

Another Example:

{{FurnitureTable/start}} {{FurnitureTable |icon name = Blue Tall Gaslamp |official name = Blue Tall Gaslamp |tooltip name = Blue Tall Gaslamp |description = A tall, elegant street lamp that emits a blue glow with a gentle hiss. |notes = This item was introduced in January 2013. |acquisition = [[Prize Box#Moorcroft Prize Box|Moorcroft Prize Box]] |cost = N/A }} {{Table/end}}

Produces:

Name	Visual	Rotation	Acquisition	Description & Notes
{{{name}}}			Moorcroft Prize Box N/A	Description: A tall, elegant street lamp that emits a blue glow with a gentle hiss. This item was introduced in January 2013.
