Talk:Battle of Dale
From Tolkien Gateway
Could we get a template for this article, please. --Dwarf Lord 11:23, 22 October 2006 (CDT)
- Done, it's usually easiest just to copy a template from another article that has it and strip the content from it. If you need any help just shout, templatizing all of the articles is definitely a big task we need to do. Thanks for all your help. --Hyarion 11:48, 22 October 2006 (CDT)
- I have never done one of those big templates before. How do you do one? --Dwarf Lord 14:18, 22 October 2006 (CDT)
- Building the template is a little more complex so I won't get into that, but just insterting it into an article is simple enough, for instance you could just copy what I added to the article and change the content to reflect the new article. Below I've blanked out the template so all you have to do is add the content:
{{battle |name= |image= |conflict= |date= |place= |result= |side1= |side2= |commanders1= |commanders2= |forces1= |forces2= |casual1= |casual2= }}
