Template:Deed

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

Using this Template

Create new deed should be used to create a Deed article (page), then fill in the appropriate parameters.

You will find sections along with standard formatting and information for the created article. If you do not need a section, you don't have to keep it into your article.

Keep in mind, this is a general template for ALL Deeds. Therefore not all parameters apply to any given Deed.

It should allow one to duplicate the in-game tooltip!

Many parameters should simply use the same value as found in the in-game tooltip -- 10 s or 10 seconds

Most parameters simply insert the text you provide directly into the template according to position and colour.

Naming Pattern:

Skill - if same name: gets name without suffix

Deed - if same name: <name> (Deed)

Effect - if same name: <name> (Effect)

Trait - if same name: <name> (Trait)

Usage

The Deed Template provides most of the standard formatting seen in the example below. It is generated conditionally, depending upon the parameters provided or omitted.
Lore-text and Objective are REQUIRED parameters.
All other parameters are OPTIONAL, and should only be filled in as needed; otherwise, left blank.

Lore-text and Objective should be typed verbatim from in-game text as found in the Deed Log.
Faction, Title, Items, Skill, Trait, and Emote should be plain text (no wikilinks).
Reputation, VXP-reward, DP-reward, COM-reward, SM-reward, Item-amounts, LP-reward, and IXP-reward should be numbers only, without any '+' as the template adds them as needed.
Deed-subtype and Regional-sub should be left blank for deeds that don't meet those criteria (i.e., Epic and Social deeds or non-Regional deeds, respectively).
XP-reward and CTP-reward are toggles (Blank or Y) which output one-line messages
When adding Deed-chain information, you will need to use the deed names used in the LOTRO Wiki, including (Advanced) and region names - they generate Wiki-links.
This template accepts the parameter | nocat = yes (Blank or Yes). If yes, then do NOT perform automatic categorization for this article.

Categorization

The template will automatically categorize based on the parameters you enter.

Do NOT create region static index pages. Each Region has a category page of all deeds already (e.g. Category:The Shire Deeds, Category:Trollshaws Deeds). Static index pages are rarely updated and are usually duplicates of the original deeds. If you want a list of a list of deeds for your page just use the category tree dropdown <categorytree depth=1>Angmar Deeds</categorytree> (e.g. Angmar#Category Overview). Or add a summary table to the category page (e.g. Category:Moria Deeds).

Meaning Behind the Parameters

Note: Regarding "blank or 'Yes'" for many parameters -- blank will not enable the feature of that parameter, but "Yes" or any other text will enable it, as will a single character, digit, or anything other than a space. Hence, blank means "off" (which is default), while any text means "on".

| nocat =: Blank or Yes. If yes, then do NOT perform automatic categorization for this article.

Name:

Location coordinates

Cordinates for explorer deed locations should not be included in the Objective= parameter, to avoid unwanted "spoilers". Instead, the coordinates should be included down below the Deed template, in a section called "Locations", using the LocationList tempate, e.g.

== Locations ==
{{LocationList
| Durin's Way | 3.6S | 106.0W | [[Jazârgund]]
| Durin's Way | 3.6S | 99.6W | [[Skoiruzg]]
}}
