Usage

To replicate the appearance of in-game dialogue. Please make dialogues on their own pages, like so: Kora Dialogue/Welcome to Haven!, with <noinclude>[[Category:Dialogues]]</noinclude> right after the last }} .

Then link to them as needed like so: {{:Kora Dialogue/Welcome to Haven!}} - this is template friendly. Have not encountered problems yet.

This way, users can:

• Find dialogues in bulk quickly via Category:Dialogues
• Update a dialogue that appears in more than one spot in the game/wiki right away and consistently.

Code

{{Dialogue
|title     = 
|location  =
|character = 
|cd 1 = 
|pd 1 = 
|cd 2 = 
|pd 2 = 
|cd 3 = 
|pd 3 = 
|cd 4 = 
|pd 4 = 
|cd 5 = 
|pd 5 = 
|cd 6 = 
|pd 6 =  
|cd 7 = 
|pd 7 =
|cd 8 = 
|pd 8 =
|cd 9 = 
|pd 9 =
|cd 10 = 
|pd 10 =
}}
