This page is the documentation for the Template:StellarData.layout

Description (Specifications)

This template is used by Template:StellarDataQuery to format the StellarData raw results into a layout for a world page. This layout includes a infobox side bar on the left size with the summary information about the world, and separated for each era. It also include a header section on the page with a summary of the world based upon the trade, sophont, and details and allegiance of the world.

Different eras, particularly the changes from classic era through the hard times and into the new era, have changes to the starport, population, government, law level, and tech level. Along with these changes include changes to economic fortunes including starport size, trade, cultural changes, and so on.

Features of this template include: World Habitability is color coded in the planet title. Each era included can have its own travel zone. If details are know about the system (stellar types, Belts, gas giant counts) these are included. If there is a full article on the system, a link to that article can be included. And a popup box containing the expanded UWP descriptions will be shown when you put the mouse cursor over the UWP in the infobox table.

Universal World Profile

UWP

the UWP code in standard format.

The UWP format must be in the standard 7-1 format ("A000000-T"). The UWP template uses Template: UWPexpand (and a css trick) to enable a formated box which pops up when move your mouse cursor over the UWP. This box contains the expanded text for the UWP, for those of us who haven't yet memorized the UWP codes.

The css trick to create a formatted pop-up box in contained MediaWiki:Common.css, and the four div.UWPInfo statements. To make this work you need to include the following in your page: <div class=UWPInfo>Text to be visible<span>Text to be in the popup</span></div>. The two sets of text can include any HTML code.
