Revision as of 01:43, 13 June 2022
This template:Wikia boilerplate is a boilerplate template. It is to be used only for Wikia-hosted wiki sites (now branded as 'Fandom powered by Wikia'). To correctly use this Wikia template, replace WIKINAME in the sample URLs with the specific Wikia sub-domain name. For example, StarWars.Wikia.com
or De.StarWars.Wikia.com
or Es.StarWars.Wikia.com
, etc. When completed and saved, this specific Wikia boilerplate calls on our default template:Wiki to generate the standard 'infobox' as used on all wiki site articles here on WikiIndex.
When adding or amending a date for the statistics (number of pages - technically, part of template:Size) update, and / or backup file (within template:Wiki) update, please use the full standardised and international ISO 8601 extended date format as shown (YYYY-MM-DD).
If / when editing an existing Wikia article to update to the new Fandom URL schema, do not change the wikiFactor URL within template:Size. The 'Special:PopularPages' was globally disabled on Wikia many years before the rebrand to Fandom, and its newer Fandom URL schema; so please leave the former WIKINAME.Wikia.com/wiki/Special:PopularPages URL, so that any archived URL might be found and added to the Wikia site article page.
Select and highlight the text above in the blue/grey 'boilerplate', select copy the highlighted text (Ctrl-c, or ⌘-c on your keyboard), and then paste (Ctrl-c or ⌘-v) it at the top of the edit box of the relevant Wikia site article, then amend the fields to the right of the =
sign with the requested information on the specific Wikia site. Don't forget to click on the 'Show preview' button (alt-p (PC) or shift-esc-p (Mac) on your keyboard) to verify your edited detail is correct before saving (alt-s [PC] or shift-esc-s [Mac]).
