Template:DidYouKnow

The DidYouKnow template is for showing trivia from newly created articles in the "Did you know..." section of the Main Page. It's not automatically or randomly updated, but purely manually operated. A user must add and move information by hand on a regular basis.

Please follow these instructions when adding new trivia:
 * 1) Pick the trivia from a recently created in-universe article. This article should be well written and properly cited, not copied from a source, and demonstrate a good wiki style. Please don't pick major spoilers as trivia. Also try to pick a wide variety of topics from a number of users, rather than from a recent batch on the same topic from the same editor.
 * 2) Phrase the trivia as a question in the form "Did you know that...?". Please begin the line with "...that", write in past tense, and end it with a question mark, "?". Bold the link to the new article, and leave other links unbolded.
 * 3) Update the trivia list once a week or once every two weeks as necessary. Alternatively, add a new entry to the top of the list, and remove the last entry in the list. Please keep the list at around five or six entries, depending on the number of new recent articles and the number needed to provide a good representation of recent work.
 * 4) Edit the Archive to include the new entries, and ensure that the old entries are present.

The current trivia are:
 * ...that in the Year of the Blue Shield, −400 DR, the monstrous H'Calos the Star Worm hatched from an egg that fell to earth in Far Payit?
 * ...that favor of Ilmater spell allowed a priest of Ilmater to take on the injuries of another, and even to sacrifice themselves to save a life?
 * ...that Fulgath was a crooked merchant of caravan supplies operating in Dagger Falls, until he was caught by priests of Lathander?
 * ...that the Twin Towers of the Eternal Eclipse were together a temple to Cyric in the Small Teeth mountains of Amn?
 * ...that Kurkle was a hell hound canomorph who served as a guide in the Elemental Plane of Fire in 1373 DR?
 * ...that Houndear Tuin'Tarl was a drow who launched a rebellion against the priestesses of Lolth during her Silence?
