{{SourceFilter}} is a template designed to be used alongside a few other templates. Primary documentation for all 3 that editors would generally use can be found here.


Usage

The purpose of these templates is to allow the filtering of entries on timeline pages. If you decide to implement this system on a page, you must first add {{SourceFilterTop}} to the top of the main 'Timeline' section. You can then begin to tag entries with this template. To tag an entry, add this template above the paragraph for the given entry. Add each tag as a separate argument, separated by a pipe (|). A list of possible tags are provided here. After the entry, you must add {{SourceFilterEnd}} to close the entry.

Example

* [[PROSE]]: ''[[Dr. Thirteenth (novel)|Dr. Thirteenth]]''
: Yaz is celebrating her birthday, setting this between ''A New Beginning'', where her age is given as 19 in her character biography, and ''The Secret in Vault 13'', where she is 20. However, Yaz is still referred to as 19-years-old in her Titan Comics bio due to Titan Comics' method of reusing the same bio for every issue. Yaz is also advertised as being 19-years-old in the Series 11 promotional material, implying a setting after ''Resolution'' as well.

would become

List of tags

Prefix tags

All entries should receive a tag based on their prefix. These are:

Validity tags

All entries should be marked either with one of the following based on their validity:

  • valid
  • invalid
  • notcovered
  • unreleased (also covers unproduced stories for simplicity)

Source type tags

Some sources may be applicable for additional type tags. These are:

  • parody
  • trailer
  • poem
  • novelisation

Series

Some entries will receive a series tag, although not all series have tags. An entry can have as many series tags as are required. Due to the fact that tags can't contain spaces, shortenings are usually used.

Publisher

All entries should have a publisher tag. Due to the fact that tags can't contain spaces, shortenings are usually used.

If the entry was not published by ay of the above, please tag it with other rather then leaving it blank.

Entry Type

Entries marked in the actual text as being one of the following should be tagged accordingly. Unless otherwise noted, the relevant tag is just the entry type.

  • REFERENCE
  • FLASHBACK
  • FRAMING DEVICE (uses FRAMINGDEVICE)
  • SEGMENT
  • PROLOGUE
  • EPILOGUE
  • NOTE
  • LETTER
  • DIARY ENTRY (uses DIARYENTRY)
  • CONJECTURE
  • CAMEO

If you want to request a new tag, please add a new section to the talk page with your request.
