This template is for use in any article about a language in the World of Greyhawk campaign setting.

Usage

Copy and paste the code section below to the top of the article being written and fill in the information ("parameter") areas.

The image and caption parameters are optional, but are preferred. The recommended image size is a width of 250px so that it will completely fill the infobox without increasing its size.

If any fields are left undefined, they will not appear.

Add wiki links to articles by putting the name of the place inside double brackets, [[like this]].

{{Language
|image    = 
|caption  = 
|name     =
|location =
|people   =
|script   =
|family   =
}}

A brief description of how to fill out each parameter follows:

  • Image—if an image of common speakers of the language has been uploaded, place the link to it like this: [[File:ExampleName.png|250px]].
  • Caption—describe the image briefly. Cite which product the illustration is from and the artist or creator.
  • Name—only necessary if it differs significantly from the page name
  • location:—the nation(s), region(s), or place(s) the language is commonly spoken. Place these in {nowiki}wikilinks</nowiki>, if possible.
  • people:—the people who typically speak the language. Place these in {nowiki}wikilinks</nowiki>, if possible.
  • script:—the type of alphabet used to write the language.
  • family:—if the language is related or derived from another language.
