Template:People

This is the template documentation for {{People}}. It is transcluded from Template:People/doc and may be directly edited there.

Usage

This template is thought for biography notes about individuals from Tolkien's work, those who are found in Category:People. Since NPCs "are alive", so to speak, only a small part of this info-box make sense, rather just add the People-category to the page and include the biography in the description or lore; see Boilerplate:NPC.

The input parameters are:

• name: (Optional) The name of the individual. Default: PAGENAME
• birth_death: Year of birth and year of death (displayed as-is). Example: 2908 - 2980
• age: The era for this character in Roman numerals. Example: III (which yields Third Age)
• race: (Optional) The race of the individual (displayed as-is). Example: Hobbit
• gender: (Optional) The individual's gender (displayed as-is). Example: Male
• ancestor: (Optional) Name of ancestor(s) of the parent(s) (displayed as-is). Example: Balbo Baggins, Berylla Boffin
• parent: (Optional) Name of the parent(s) (displayed as-is). Example: Fosco Baggins, Ruby Bolger
• spouse: (Optional) Name of the spouse (displayed as-is). Example: Primula Brandybuck
• child: (Optional) Name of the child(ren) (displayed as-is). Example: Frodo Baggins
• descendant: (Optional) Name of the descendants further down the genealogy (displayed as-is).
• info: (Optional) Any short text (displayed as-is). Lengthier text goes into the Description text at the page itself, this is meant for siblings or short and crisp data.

Categories

The template will automatically add the page to the Category:People category.
