So I made an {{infobox alliance}} template, which you can see here:

http://wiki.earthempires.com/index.php/Evolution

And I made an {{infobox contact}} template, which you can see here:

http://wiki.earthempires.com/index.php/Qzjul


As always you can leave out some info, and you can add to the template if you so desire, as long as you don't break it ;)

I suspect this might be one of the easier ways to do unified contact information & stuff for alliances, so give it a try ;) Go add your Alliance's info and FA people and their contact info....

will let gazza or ivan do that

Since I'm failing at it, I am compelled to ask: How do you add info to the box thingy you made for us?

mmm for example:

{{infobox alliance
| image = --
| founders = --
| founded = --
| origins = --
| anw = --
| tnw = --
| num_members = --
| mission = --
| focus = --
| president = --
| vps = --
| hfa = --
| fas = --
| hia = --
| ias = --
| hwar = --
| war = --
| trainers = --
| homepage = --
| irc = --
}}


replace the -- with names and data and stuff.... like this


{{infobox alliance
| image = --
| founders = ANGRY CURTAIN
| founded = --
| origins = --
| anw = --
| tnw = --
| num_members = 34
| mission = CRUSH
| focus = CRUSHING
| president = Nazar
| vps = [[Pangaea]]
| hfa = Viceroy
| fas = Shoagie, Raheel
| hia = Gregg
| ias = Tirol, [[Shinigami]], Murf
| hwar = Lord Tanarva
| war = --
| trainers = --
| homepage = [http://boxcarhosting.org/FakeAlliance FakeAlliance Boxcar]
| irc = ''"#'''fakealliance on irc.earthempires.com
}}

names/words wityh [[brackets]] around them will link to those wiki pages

Sorry, I didn't clarify that very well. How do you add fields or change existing fields? An example would be an alliance with no specific VP positions and would like to add a field for Councilors.

Ummmmmmm, u have to do a few things

u can pm me the info u would like added?

hehe started editting SoFs

That means I'd have to figure out what all I want to add, Lol. The most obvious changes I would make are minor cosmetic ones. Stuff like how we use some slightly different terminology for some of our positions.

If there is no easy way to do it myself, that too is good to know. I'm posting this on the fly, so I guess I'll pm you if I discover something I really need changed. Thank you.

u would need to edit that template

and it's a lengthy edit, also...if you butcher ir or the proper order, there is a 87% chance that qzjul would murder you

You are a braver individual than I am to post that in an open forum. I think a better strategy might be to figure out how to make my own rudimentary infobox, because I definitely don't trust myself to muck around with that.

Well, you would have to add in fields and re number the rest. Not deleting the ones you don't want to use, just expanding it and only using the keywords that you wanted to use

yea you could make an infobox alliance2 or something that's completely custom

hehe this is easier than i thought, but got a long way to go

Btw, thanks for putting up with all these annoying questions I seem to come up with...

nobody liked my fake alliance?

If estats ever comes back, we could update the NA page with lots of goodies : /

oh NA ES contact page was sometimes accurate? :P
