Help:Project Pages

Revision as of 12:32, 6 May 2021 by Daniel (talk | contribs)

When creating pages for community created projects, you should use this general format.

At the top of the page, you should include an Infobox. You should use the slightly edited Template:Infobox rail line.

Example Infobox
Example i18n
Railway Diagram in ROS
Overview
AuthorAuthor
StatusStatus on the Project
LocaleLocation (Or fictional)
TerminiStart Location
End Location
StationsNumber of Stations
WebsiteLink to ROS website
Service
TypeRailway Type
Technical
Line lengthLength of railway
Number of tracksGeneral track layout
Operating speedGeneral track speed
SignallingSignalling type

To generate an infobox you can use the following piece of text, included are some examples of what goes in each box. You can copy and paste this example into the page.


{{Infobox rail line
| name             = Name of Route
| author           = Author
| image            = File:Example railway.png
| image_alt        = Alternative text for image
| caption          = Railway Diagram in ROS
| type             = Railway Type (Mainline, Metro, Branch Lines...)
| status           = Status on the Project (Released, Work in Progress)
| locale           = Location (Or Fictional)
| start            = Start Location (First station / major hub)
| end              = End Location (Last station / major hub)
| stations         = Number of Stations
| linelength_km    = <!-- You can enter a number here and it will be automatically converted to mi -->
| linelength_mi    = <!-- You can enter a number here and it will be automatically converted to kilometers -->
| linelength       = Use if above two do not apply
| tracks           = How many tracks wide in general? (1 with passing loops, 2, 4?)
| speed_km/h       = <!-- General track speed, you can enter a number here and it will be automatically converted to mph -->
| speed_mph        = <!-- General track speed, you can enter a number here and it will be automatically converted to km/h -->
| speed            = Use if above two do not apply
| signalling       = Signalling type (Most likely block signalling)
| website          = Link to ROS website
| map              = <!-- Leave blank, this is WIP -->
| map_name         = <!-- Leave blank, this is WIP -->
| map_state        = <!-- Leave blank, this is WIP -->
| embedded         = <!-- Leave blank, this is WIP -->
