template:LotROQuest  

This template makes it possible for us to link items NOW without worrying about how the links will have to change when we get db/wiki integration. Later, when we have a namespace, one edit, here, will fix all of them!

At this time, as we do not have a namespace nor db integration, questid is needed to make a direct link. If it is blank, QuestName is used to call the site Search.

Usage: {{LotROQuest|QuestName|AltQuestName|level|questid=|type=|maxrepeat=|cooldown=|nofail=|inspiration=|optional=|slinknote=}}

QuestName

The Quest Name exactly as it appears, or should appear, in the DB. If questid is blank this is the field that will be passed to the search engine. IF we get full wiki integration THIS is the field that will be used to link to the db via the LotRO_Quest: namespace.
AltQuestName
(optional) Name of the quest exactly as you want it displayed. If blank the QuestName will be used.
level
{optional} The level of the quest. This will be displayed after the quest name, of provided, in parentheses.
questid=
The ZAM database quest id for this item. This has no relation to any internal number used by Turbine. If questid is blank the QuestName is instead linked to our site search (indicated by <s>).
type=
(optional) One of Solo, Small Fellowship, Fellowship, Raid. Default is Solo but if type= is blank Solo is not displayed.
maxrepeat=
(optional) If maxrepeat is not blank, this quest is Repeatable. If maxrepeat=0 the quest has no limit.
cooldown=
(optional) Many quests have a cooldown after success, failure or cancellation, before the quest can be tried again.
nofail=
(optional) Defeat is not an option, maggot! If you are defeated while this quest is in your log you FAIL!
inspiratioon=
(optional) Some Fellowship quests, especially Epic Fellowship quests, can be solo'd (with difficulty) through the use of an Inspiration buff.
optional=
If not blank, this quest is optional and not required to start, progress or complete the Quest Chain. This will often be a quest that is not officially a part of the chain but is given from elsewhere to lead you to the Chain's quest-giver.
slinknote=
If this is not blank no attempt will be made to create a quest link. Instead, a note will be displayed explaining why some links are to the search page.
