Important Notes

Character Status

Use one of the following values for the status parameter:

CharacterPresent - Currently active and available
CharacterAway - Temporarily absent or traveling
CharacterDeceased - Character has died
CharacterImprisoned - Currently incarcerated
CharacterMissing - Disappeared or whereabouts unknown

Date Formats

birthdate: Use ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD) for age calculation. Example: 1995-03-15
firstappearance: Use ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD) for consistent display. Example: 2025-08-01

List Format

For fields that support lists (aka, occupation, affiliations, family, relations), use MediaWiki list syntax:

 |field = 
* First item
* Second item
* Third item

Character Links in Relations

The relations field can include links to other characters. Use the AutoLink template or regular MediaWiki links:

[[Characters/Jane Smith]]
{{AutoLink|type=characters|target=Jane Smith}}

Player Links

The player field automatically creates links to player pages using the AutoLink template.

This template uses CSS variables that automatically adapt to the Citizen skin's light/dark theme.
