Documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

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
This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status

Number of Articles	`count`	The number of articles to display (from most recently edited to least recent). Default 12	Number	optional

Sample

The following input:

{{RecentlyEdited|category=Qxy{{!}}Spelude, Noildoof{{!}}Autumn|count=9}}

Produces:

Recently Edited
