Template for collection item articles

Revision as of 08:53, 21 January 2015 by MeaghanBrown (talk | contribs)

This is one of a series of articles which describes a template that will allow for consistent and easy article creation on Folgerpedia.

This template is for recording information about a Folger Shakespeare Library collections item. Click the "piece of paper symbol" in the upper right of your screen. Under "edit source," copy the code below the line (<hr/>) into the "creating" page to get a head-start on creating an article for a collections item. You probably won't need all the sections listed below, they are simply suggestions. We highly recommend a descriptive title for all articles on collections items. If one subsection is particularly important and/or lengthy, it is worthwhile to bump it up from Subheader 1 to Header level. The category:Collection is necessary for all collections items articles, but other designators can be used as applicable, including subcategories such as 'Manuscripts.'

You can save a DRAFT of your article by putting {{draft}} as the first word in the article.

Examples:

Lady Anne Kerr manuscript receipt book circa 1674

The Mothers Blessing by Dorothy Leigh


Summary paragraph briefly describing your object. Please link to the Hamnet short URL somewhere in this paragraph.
