amend edit to Paizo's consistent term for 'alternate domain'; add some notes as I got confused recently

New page

'''{{tl|Deity}}''' is for use in any article about a [[deity]] in the [[Pathfinder campaign setting]], regardless of mechanical edition or revision. This infobox template is similarly used for [[pantheon]]s, [[covenant]]s, and [[philosophy|philosophies]]. Some parameters are ''optional'' and can be left blank; if undefined, these optional parameters will not appear as part of the template.

This template is based upon the [[frw:Template:Book|Book Template]] and the [[frw:Template:Deity|Deity Template]] located at the [[frw:Main_Page|Forgotten Realms Wiki]].

== Usage ==

<pre>

'''source''' and '''page''' to cite either First or Second Edition only, but not both:

<pre>
| source =

}}
</pre>

'''1e-''' and '''2e-source''' and '''page''' to cite both First and Second Edition simultaneously:

<pre>
| 1e-source =
| 1e-page =
| 2e-source =
| 2e-page =
}}
</pre>

; ibtype ''(optional)'': Changes the text of the infobox type designation, such as '''(Deity)''', '''(Pantheon)''', '''(Covenant)''', or '''(Philosophy)''',. This parameter's default value is {{xt|Deity}}.

; image ''(optional)'': An image of the deity's [[religious symbol]]. Should be given without <code>[[]]</code> or any settings.

; name: The deity's name.

; titles ''(optional)'': Titles and alternative names that represent the deity.

; adjective ''(optional)'': The word used to describe entities of or pertaining or related to the deity.

; home ''(optional)'': Location the deity calls home. Pathfinder Second Edition prefers the term 'Realm' and this is what will appear in the infobox produced.

; alignment: The deity's [[alignment]], as a link (ie. {{xt|<nowiki>[[Lawful good]]</nowiki>}}).

; portfolio ''(optional)'': Areas of concern, portfolios, or spheres of influence, possessed by the deity. 'Portfolio' is a 3.5 term; Paizo prefers 'Areas of Concern' and this is what will appear in the infobox produced. Each area of concern should have its first word capitalized and be separated by a {{xt|<nowiki> </nowiki>}} to ensure each is on a separate line.

; worshipers ''(optional)'': Typical worshippers of the deity.

; edicts ''(optional)'': Summarise the edicts of the deity. Try to keep this text as short as possible taking any longer discussion of edicts into the main body text of the article.

; anathema ''(optional)'': Summarise the anathemas of the deity. Try to keep this text as short as possible taking any longer discussion of anathemas into the main body text of the article.

; follower alignments, or cleric alignments ''(optional)'': Use {{Tl|Alignment grid}} to indicate acceptable [[alignment]]s of followers associated with the deity for the First Edition of the game.

; domains ''(optional)'': [[Domain]]s associated with the deity for the First Edition of the game.

; subdomains ''(optional)'': [[Subdomain]]s associated with the deity (if any) for the First Edition of the game.

; 2e-follower alignments, or 2e-clr alignments ''(optional)'': Use {{Tl|Alignment grid}} to indicate acceptable [[alignment]]s of followers associated with the deity for the Second Edition of the game.

; 2e-sanctification ''(optional)'': Provide text for the possible divine [[sanctification]]s offered by this deity in the Second Edition of game, such as "Can choose holy or unholy" or "Must choose holy".

; 2e-domains ''(optional)'': [[Domain]]s, using sentence case, associated with the deity for the Second Edition of the game. Add "''Alternate:''", in italics, before them to make clear the status of alternate domains.

; weapon ''(optional)'': The deity's favored [[weapon]].

; symbol ''(optional)'': The deity's [[religious symbol]].

; sacred animal ''(optional)'': [[Animal]] treated with special reverence by a deity's faithful.

; sacred colors ''(optional)'': Colors associated with a deity (often found in church decorations and clergy attire).

; aon1e, aon2e ''(optional)'': The final part of a URL to an Archives of Nethys page about the creature, monster family, or race/ancestry, starting after the first slash (e.g. <code>Deities.aspx?ID=2</code> from <nowiki>https://2e.aonprd.com/</nowiki>'''Deities.aspx?ID=2''', or <code>DeityDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Asmodeus</code> from <nowiki>https://aonprd.com/</nowiki>'''DeityDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Asmodeus''').

; imagesof ''(optional)'': The name of the category that contains images of this deity or its related symbols and worshipers, which appears in the infobox as a link to the category page. For instance, an '''imagesof''' value of {{xt|Aroden}} creates a link to [[:Category:Images of Aroden]] with the link text "Images of Aroden". This parameter is case-sensitive. If omitted or left blank, the infobox uses the article name and appears only if the category exists but we prefer it to be used to keep the template complete.

; source & page ''(optional)'': The source wherein the deity was first mentioned, or from which the most information is available. Link the title, and include page number if possible. Use this '''only''' if you have a source and page '''for either 1E or 2E, but not both'''.

; 1e-source, 1e-page, 2e-source, & 2e-page ''(optional)'': The source wherein the deity was first mentioned, or from which the most information is available, in both 1E and 2E. Link the title, and include page number if possible. Use this '''only''' if you have a source and page '''for both editions'''.
