Description

This template has DPL code that shows a list of recently edited pages in selected categories using a packed gallery.

Syntax

On a category page of either locations or characters:

{{RecentlyEdited}}

On other pages:

{{RecentlyEdited|category=}}

Usage

The template places a collapsible section of articles with images. The images are taken from templates used on the article pages. The template is recommended to be used directly on a category page, which will have it display pages from that category.

This template can only show pages that use the following templates:

From this it's obvious that only pages of locations and characters really work, hence it's best to use a category with those pages as the input.

The limitations in page selection restrict the use of the template, so any help in making it more general is appreciated.

Parameters

Displays a packed gallery of recently edited pages in a category.

Template parameters
