Template talk:Cite game

Now, if someone could fix the funny extra lines appearing after where this template is used... Ville V. Kokko 10:05, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, that was easy. Practically a trick question. "What's making the extra lines appear in the template?" "The extra lines in the template." Duh. Ville V. Kokko 16:26, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Location
I've always been a bit hazy on the code so I have no idea why, but I see that (at least for the Baldur's Gate games) the location tag has ceased to work. It used to be just that you'd need to put a | in a citation to add an explanation of whereabouts in the game something was - I can't even remember how that was achieved - but now that doesn't do anything. See Sarevok, for example. Can someone figure out why? Ville V. Kokko 22:14, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Location vs Page
I see (now, after editing, doh!) that the Location parameter is supposed to do double duty... it can be used for a page number in a manual, or a text explanation of something, like "in Whatshisface's dialog, after you do Thatthing." This could be a problem. Although it sounds like the text explanation function isn't working anyway. Just sayin maybe, if we need both of those functions, we need separate Location (for in-game locations) and Page (for book) parameters. Alternatively, move the Manual templates to Cite Book... which seems to make a lot of sense anyway... I'm a little out of my depth, sorry. I'm still a noob, and I should probably keep muh mouf shut. :) Wanderscribe (talk) 21:13, February 23, 2013 (UTC)
