Group
Featured In {{{books}}}

This template allows you to describe groups or organizations of characters. It has optional parameters such as {{{founders}}}, {{{members}}}, {{{hq}}}, and {{{world}}}.

To use, insert {{group}} at the top of the article.

It automatically adds pages to Category: Groups

Notes

  • founder(s) and leader(s) are not super widely used at the moment, but they should probably stay (and be added where appropriate).
  • members is a little clunky, some groups have a lot of named members, and we should really be putting those in a section, not in the infobox... Could restrict the infobox to notable members, but that feels arbitrary.
  • related is currently used only on Stingray Clan (related to Epics) and Herald (related to Oathpact). I am not sure there is much value to a parameter like this, groups are going to be related to a lot of things (e.g. the Heralds are also notably related to Surgebinding, Honor, Honorblades, Shardblades, Ashyn...). I'd probably remove this parameter.
