No State Religion box? :( Or Official religion, to make it more general, most realms have an official religion. -Chénier 03:18, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, there is a state religion parameter. Take a look at Keplerstan. Since I am still actively working on the template, I have not updated the parameter descriptions. I have added new ones, and removed some of the listed ones. --Indirik 04:09, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

parser conditionals

All parameter names must be listed on your page. If you do not wish a particular piece of information to appear, then leave that parameter blank and it will not be shown at all. i.e.:

That can easily be fixed using parser conditionals - see the unique items or my region infobox template for examples on how to build that. --Tom 16:38, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

I started looking at your regional template yesterday to see how you handled the conditionals. I think the biggest problems I had was with pipes in the templates. I didn't really understand all the references I on wikipedia and others about pipes messing up templates. The new Template:! will, I think help me out a lot with blank lines showing up when I left a section out. --Indirik 18:28, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

categories

Please don't use Category:Island anymore. We should replace that with the "located on" property, don't you think? The one thing that categories are better is that they automatically put a link on the page bottom. --Tom 18:17, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Are the Island categories being removed? If not, then it could be confusing the have two separate places to go to find things about, for example, Atamara: a Category and a Properties search. Also, how will people be able to easily browse based on a property? We would have to assemble pre-made lists for them to make it easy. And then we have to have a "list of lists", and make them convenient and easy to get to. Perhaps a sidebar entry for "Lists"? Categories are just so easy to get to with the link at the bottom of the page. If it is being removed, then I think we should replace it with something else just as easy. --Indirik 17:34, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
