Template:Audio Diary/doc

This template provides consistent format for Audio Diary transcripts. This template should only be used in Audio Diary transcript articles.

Using this
To use this template, copy and paste the following into an empty page and fill in the needed information.



About the parameters

 * game - The name of the game, DLC, or other source that the Audio Diary appears in. (This influences the categories that the transcript page is placed in.)
 * Possible values: BioShock, BioShock 2, BioShock 2 Multiplayer, Minerva's Den, Something in the Sea
 * name - The name of the Audio Diary.
 * speaker - The name of the speaker whose portrait is shown with the diary in-game. (This controls what portrait image will show on the page.)
 * level - The level where the Audio Diary can be found in-game. If the diary is not from a game, use the same value as the "game" parameter. (This influences the categories that the transcript page is placed in.)
 * location - A short accurate description of where the diary can be found.
 * audio - (optional) Name of the file page on this wiki which contains audio from the diary.
 * transcript - Use only for Audio Diaries involving a single speaker.
 * dialog - Use instead of the "transcript" parameter for Audio Diaries involving multiple speakers.

Additional information

 * This template uses the Template:Listen to display audio files on a page.
 * Some speakers have multiple Audio Diary portraits. In such instances, the portrait that will show is determined by several factors:
 * Andrew Ryan & Brigid Tenenbaum: Portrait choice is determined by the value of the "game" parameter.
 * Edward Grimes: Portrait choice is determined by page name.
 * Eleanor Lamb: "Eleanor Lamb" should never be used for the speaker parameter. Instead, use "Eleanor Lamb (Teen)" or "Eleanor Lamb (Child)" to determine what portrait is shown.

Audio Diary portraits used
Each portrait is shown below with the value for the "speaker" parameter which will cause it to appear in the template. Any additional needed parameters are also shown. Portraits which are larger than 100px wide in this gallery must be given a 100px width value in the template.
