Template:Infobox Character/family

This template offers a way of optionally defining up to 5 family members a (character) article is related to. If no family members are specified, nothing is displayed.

Parameters

• fam1: The name of the first family member of the character (existing character article, specified by any nonempty value)
• fam2: The name of the second family member of the character (existing character article, specified by any nonempty value)
• fam3: The name of the third family member of the character (existing character article, specified by any nonempty value)
• fam4: The name of the fourth family member of the character (existing character article, specified by any nonempty value)
• fam5: The name of the fifth family member of the character (existing character article, specified by any nonempty value)

Note: this categorizer doesn't actually categorize the article under any category, because there has been no decision yet how to do this for family relations (discuss).

Note: unlike Template:Infobox Character/requires, this template does not check the existence of the specified articlename (discuss).

Note: if multiple family members are specified, they are wrapped in a list, and nothing is displayed when none are specified.

Syntax

{{infobox character/family|fam1=value|fam2=value|fam3=value|fam4=value|fam5=value}}

Examples

Common use include any of the fam1, fam2, fam3, fam4 or fam5 parameters to specify the family members a character is related to:

{{infobox character/family|fam1=Twinsen}}
{{infobox character/family|fam1=Zoé}}

Twinsen

Zoé

You can also specify multiple family members for one character (warning: this will force a table cell to split in two, so do not do this outside table cells!):

{{infobox character/family|fam1=Twinsen|fam2=Zoé}}

Multiple:

• Twinsen
• Zoé

You may number up to five family members, and you can define the order in which they appear (gaps are omitted):

{{infobox character/family|fam4=Twinsen|fam1=Zoé}}

Multiple:

• Zoé
• Twinsen

The value you specify will be rendered as an article link directly, but there are no checks made whether the articles actually exist, so this will render as a red-link:

{{infobox character/family|fam1=Nonexisting character}}

Nonexisting character

You may leave "family" undefined (which would not raise any maintenance task) by not specifying any value, so these all have the same result (nothing displayed):

{{infobox character/family}}
{{infobox character/family|fam1=}}
{{infobox character/family|fam3=}}
{{infobox character/family|fam1=|fam2=|fam3=|fam4=|fam5=}}
{{infobox character/family|fam5=|fam4=|fam3=|fam2=|fam1=}}
{{infobox character/family|fam1=   |fam2=   |fam3=   |fam4=   |fam5=   }}
{{infobox character/family
 |fam1=
 |fam2=
 |fam3=
 |fam4=
 |fam5=
}}
