Template:RecentlyEdited/doc

Description

This template has DPL code that shows a list of recently edited pages in selected categories. It is in the format of images with link captions underneath.

Syntax

On a category page of either locations or characters:

{{RecentlyEdited}}

Manual input and with a higher number of pages listed:

{{RecentlyEdited|page0=Yume Nikki Locations|page1=Yume Nikki Characters|page2=Yume 2kki Characters|count=16}}

Usage

The template places a collapsible section containing a selected number of images in a row. The articles to use in the list are those found in inputted categories. The images are taken from templates used on the article pages. This template can only show pages that use the following templates:

• Template:ListChar
• Template:Locationbox
• Template:NPCBox
• Template:Listloc
• Template:Characterbox

From this it's obvious that only pages of locations and characters really work with this, hence it's best to use those kinds of pages as inputs.
The template is meant to show pages with recent activity as editors may be inclined to follow up on those edits. New pages which would be recieving more edits will appear which similarly attracts more attention. The limitations in page selection are annoying and restrict the use of the template, so any help in making it easier to use is appreciated.
