Template:Note


This template is used to add reference sources from the novels, short stories, for this purpose it is used just like the Wikipedia <ref> tag, only using standardised format, grouping references to the same source, to avoid excessive long reference list spam.

Usage

Common form for the Novels and Tales of Dunk and Egg are: {{Ref|Book|chapter}} and for the Tv show {{Ref|TvShow|season/episode}}

Where Book names are denoted by:

aGoT is [[A Game of Thrones]] 
aCoK is [[A Clash of Kings]]
aSoS is [[A Storm of Swords]]
aFfC is [[A Feast for Crows]]
aDwD is [[A Dance with Dragons]]
tWoW is [[The Winds of Winter]]
aDoS is [[A Dream of Spring]]

THK is [[The Hedge Knight]]
TSS is [[The Sworn Sword]]
TMK is [[The Mystery Knight]]

TPATQ is [[The Princess and the Queen]]

Practical Examples for the Books:

{{Ref|aGoT|15}} => Reference to A Game of Thrones, Chapter 15.
{{Ref|aDwD|15}} => Reference to Dance with Dragons, Chapter 15.
{{Ref|aDwD|prologue}} => Reference to Dance with Dragons, the prologue Chapter.

Practical Examples for the Tales of Dunk and Egg:

{{Ref|THK}} => Reference to The Hedge Knight, C.
{{Ref|THK|p.115}} => Reference to The Hedge Knight, C.

Practical Examples for the TvShow.

{{Ref|HboGoT|s01e02}} => Reference to Hbos Game of Thrones, Season 1, episode 2
{{Ref|HboGoT|s02e03}} => Reference to Hbos Game of Thrones, Season 2, episode 3


  • Alternatively, you can type directly: <ref>[[A Game of Thrones]], [[A Game of Thrones-Chapter 5|Chapter 5]], Jon I, page 45.</ref>
  • Additionally, you can now add a third parameter as free text, which can be used to add the specific page for the reference, {{Ref|Book|chapter number|p. 233}}. For consistency sake the page should only of the marked version we use on the pages table.
  • Note that all the Book names were made case insensitive, to avoid typos, thus it doesn't really matter if you type AGOT, AgOT, agot etc...
