Template:Deity/doc

This template creates an infobox for a deity in the Forgotten Realms multiverse. There are two ways to use this template: for single-edition info and for multiple-edition info. The single-edition parameters are all the usual ones while the multiple-edition parameters end in 5e, 4e, 3e etc. corresponding to the edition the info comes from. As a general rule, if you use any multiple-edition parameters then you should not use any single-edition ones. All parameters are optional except the name. See the Usage notes for more details.

Optional parameters
In lieu of the class parameter, editors may use the following parameters. These are only to be used if a character is given different statistics in different versions of the game; if different statistics are published within the same edition, the stats in the most recently published source for that edition should be used. The parameters are: class1e, class2e, class3e, class35 (note that this is for 3.5 edition; a period cannot be used between the 3 and 5), class4e, and class5e. Use the Class table} template as the input for these parameters.

For the edition-specific sections, you may specify one or more references to appear in the subheading rather than in the Class table. The parameters are: refs1e, refs2e, refs3e, refs35, refs4e, and refs5e. Example:.
