Template:Yearbox

Use this template on any page representing a year in Forgotten Realms history. It is designed to provide quick links to five years in the immediate past and future. In the case where there are entries for every year, it will automatically provide these links, but for situations where there are not entries for each year (such as long in the past when nothing notable happened in many individual years), manual overrides can be provided to give the five closest past and future years with events to note.

Overriding Years
When the five immediate past or future years with notable events are not consecutive, you will need to provide manual overrides. Luckily this is not complicated, as in this example.
