Boilerplate:Item

Boilerplate:Item Please use Create new item to create item articles.
This page is an explanation of all parameters and a guideline for additional, optional information desired for item articles.
The tool: Create new item allows you to create an item page by simply "filling in the blanks". I.e. adding the values to the appropriate parameters for your item.
Note that most items will NOT use more than a fraction of the possible parameters. The tool will display this page when you first use it. As soon as you "preview" the page, that display will disappear. You can always display the information on this page by simply opening another tab or page in your browser to Boilerplate:Item.
Below the parameter explanations, you will find additional, optional sections along with pre-determined formatting and information for the created article. If you do not need a section, you don't have to copy it into your article.
For help and information, see Help:Items and Template:Item Tooltip.
Important Notices:
  • Item name: {{subst:PAGENAME}} usually works well, but if the item name does not equal the page name, replace the code with the item name spelled exactly as in-game.
    Example: the page is named "Chainsaw (Level 33)" but the item is named "Chainsaw" (and assumingly other Chainsaw pages exist).
  • disambigpage: Please retain {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}} in the disambigpage field. Otherwise you must use ' instead of any apostrophe ( ' ).
  • Icons: Please use generic icons as far as possible. Navigate to wanted category from Category:Item Icons. Should an icon not exist, upload the new icon and make it Generic following the naming standard on the icon pages. Neither Image: nor File: nor .PNG is necessary. Example: "Cloak 1 (incomparable)-icon"
  • attrib: Enumerate all attributes as they are read at the in-game tooltip. Use <br> to separate items, e.g. +5 Might <br> +10 Maximum Power. Only includes line breaks in the 'attrib' parameter if there are actual line breaks in the tooltip (and not just text wrapping to another line). Use {{WEffect}} for standardized weapon stats like the +Parry chance from a sword.

</gallery>
  • Uploaded images should comply to the rules of Help:Images.
  • Exception: pictures of decorations that are very dark may be taken by clicking on the item to lighten it up; this will cause the name tag to show.


Level-scaled Item details

For items which are level-scaled (i.e. an item that has different stats at different item levels), do the following:

  • In the {{Item Tooltip}} template:
    • Set the 'scaled' parameter to 'y'.
    • Set the item_level, level, attrib, and worth parameters to the values from the version of the item with the highest item level currently known.
  • On the page add a section called 'Item Information' that includes {{ScaledItem}} and a table of item levels, min levels, stats, and worths:
== Item Information ==
{{ScaledItem}}
{| class="altRowsCenter"
! Item Level  !! Min Level !! Damage !! DPS !! Agility !! Vitality !! Finesse Rating !! Critical Rating !! Worth
|-
|  47 || 45 ||  50 - 83  ||  35.0 ||  +40 ||  +34 ||  +366 ||  +75 || {{Worth|s=12|c=12}}
|-
| 176 || 95 || 311 - 518 || 218.1 || +217 || +186 || +1274 || +282 || {{Worth|s=39|c=21}}
|}

For an example of proper formatting of a level-scaled item, see Item:Greater Dextrous Bracelet of Fate.

NOTE: If the standard and critical outputs of a crafted item have the same names but different item levels, those items should NOT be considered level-scaled. Instead, create separate pages for each item with a suffix on the page title indicating the item level, for example:
