Template:Talk

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Transcripting is text-intensive so I find the classic editor source mode works best. The core template of transcripting is {{Talk}} and its subtemplates. See here for a list of all Talk subtemplates.

Example usage[edit]

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Aiken|text=Test 1}}
{{Talk/Rain|text=Test 2}}


		Aiken Flaherty



		Test 1


		Liriel Rain Bryer



		Test 2

Use the following syntax to depict multiple characters talking at once (such as in 518: Smexy):

Wikitext

Output

{| class="parallel-talk"
| {{Talk/Aiken|text=Test 1}}
| {{Talk/Rain|text=Test 2}}
|}


		Aiken Flaherty



		Test 1


		Liriel Rain Bryer



		Test 2

Ky(lie)[edit]

Since Ky(lie) is genderfluid, the dialogue box used depends on if they're a guy, girl, or androgynous during the situation.

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Ky|text=Test}}


		Ky(lie) Coven



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=boy|text=Test}}


		Ky Coven



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=boy?|text=Test}}


		Ky? Coven



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=girl|text=Test}}


		Kylie Coven



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=girl?|text=Test}}


		Kylie? Coven



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=androgynous|text=Test}}


		Ky Coven (androgynous)



		Test

{{Talk/Ky|mode=androgynous?|text=Test}}


		Ky Coven (androgynous?)



		Test

Rain[edit]

To depict Rain normally, use the following template:

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Rain|text=''Test''}}


		Liriel Rain Bryer



		Test

Since her text is generally italicized, italicize all of her text too, unless if she isn't using her female voice, such as when she is boymoding or if she is in extreme distress (e.g. 309: Not Like This). If she only partially uses her femme voice in a piece of dialogue, itaclize the femme part only, such as in 76: Voice.

If she is shown before transitioning (like in 2: Prologue 2), use this template:

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Ryan|text=Test}}


		Ryan Flaherty



		Test

If she is boymoding (such as in 254: Get It), then use this template:

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Ryan2|text=Test}}


		'Ryan' Flaherty



		Test

Other characters[edit]

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Other|name=Frances|text=Test}}


		Frances



		Test

{{Talk/Other|name=Frances|link=Fara Bryer|text=Test}}


		Frances



		Test

{{Talk/Other|name=Frances|image=Fara headshot.PNG|text=Test}}


		Frances



		Test

{{Talk/Other|name=Frances|link=Fara Bryer|image=Fara headshot.PNG|text=Test}}


		Frances



		Test

Unknown characters[edit]

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Unknown|text=Test}}


		Unknown character



		Test

{{Talk/Unknown|name=Someone|text=Test}}


		Someone



		Test

Common questions[edit]

Why does text that starts with a colon have it disappear?[edit]

: is actually used in wikitext to indent lines. To prevent this behavior, wrap the line, word, or the first colon with <nowiki>, like so:

Wikitext

Output

{{Talk/Rain|text=<nowiki>:hic:</nowiki>}}


		Liriel Rain Bryer



		:hic:
