not a committee post: misc template links

[aethel]

The vid template is now in use if anyone wants to try it out.

So many new zine templates are now in use that I created a guide to go with them.

Another fanwork template idea: Since vids get their own template, why not fanfiction? Any other fields to add to this one?

Amy wrote a nifty timeline help page for creating your own timeline template, like the graph on the Timeline_of_Slashed_Sources page.

Re: Podfic template?

An alternative would be to add a podfic field into the fanfiction template.

I'm not sure what I would add to such a field. "Podfic: yes"? I always include the podfic link together with the story link(s) and art link in the external links field...

An 'associated works' field? (only, a better name. Related works?) A lot of stories have podfic/art/vids/shared universes/remixes and so on. Though with some stories that could get quite long.

A lot of stories have podfic/art/vids/shared universes/remixes and so on.

Yes, but that goes to the main part of the article as well and usually there is more to say about it than would fit in a field in an infobox. When it comes to linking to the original pages, these links fit under external links (see for example http://fanlore.org/wiki/Steam).

some "associated fanworks" might have their own page on Fanlore (like the Hindsight Trailer) and therefore wouldn't fit in the "external links" section. But it's true not everything needs to go into the infobox...

(By the way, I shortened the "click here" text)

Yes, but that too is linked in the article. ;) See
