The only character templates I can find are the infobox, the (very short) [[Template:Newpage_companion]] and the almost-empty [[Template:Newpage_individual]]. However, I'm seeing sections like "Key life events", "Mysteries and discrepancies", and others that aren't in those templates appearing frequently, if not consistently. Is there a better character template that I haven't found, or a detailed discussion of this somewhere else that I can refer to? --[[User:Bedawyn|Bedawyn]] 05:45, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

The only character templates I can find are the infobox, the (very short) Template:Newpage_companion and the almost-empty Template:Newpage_individual. However, I'm seeing sections like "Key life events", "Mysteries and discrepancies", and others that aren't in those templates appearing frequently, if not consistently.

See Tardis:Layout guide and Tardis:Templates, all the infoboxes (give or take one or two) have instructions on how to use them. The layout guide has some info on usage. --Tangerineduel 13:51, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, but I was looking for information about the outline rather than the infobox. The Layout Guide just says "to be added" for individuals.--Bedawyn 15:15, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
So it does...(It's on my to do list) I would suggest just to look around at some individuals' article pages. Seventh Doctor, Bernice Summerfield, Davros and Chris Cwej are some relatively good examples of individual pages. --Tangerineduel 15:25, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
