Summary

Items in the wiki are chaotic. This is the first step in an attempt to make them more organized. This is an experiment, if it turns out well - I might apply the same trick for other areas where there is a great deal of duplicated information.

This template is a front for a collection of templates all designed to run from the same information. An item page that correctly uses this template can allow other pages to have access to the same item information, even if they need it in a different form (such as a short version or a list item version).

Default View design

I am thinking of mixing ingame and normal wiki style for this, to finish with something like what is done for NPC's (where we include the ingame view but right page aligned, and additional information / notes is normal wiki style). The view selector type template allows us to create a more fully designed page as when including in other pages - we can choose which bits to include.

Short View design

The intention is to have something informal and short in wiki style. The idea is we can throw together a list of items with just summaries and icons, a bit like demons on their various family pages (eg Beast).

Ingame View design

The idea being to get as close to ingame view as possible. There is alot of work already done by other authors - adreamofcold for ItemSI and AnnanFay for the newest design. I will likely include these template as is here.
