User:Lesoria/Sandbox/Proposed Templates

Let's see if anyone spots this, or if I'll have to pass it around to be seen.

I'd like to propose a template for each game, to make it easier to link to games.

An example template would be:

{{TMC}} -> [[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]

The latter is written a lot, isn't it? The former would be easier, wouldn't it?

Example, before:

Link meets Ezlo in {{TMC}}. They continue to travel through TMC together.

And after:

Link meets Ezlo in The Minish Cap. They continue to travel through TMC together.

Good idea. One thing to keep in mind is some games will need more than one abbreviation. For example, sometimes it sounds better to write Wind Waker and sometimes it sounds better to write The Wind Waker. So we'd need two templates:

{{TWW}} -> [[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]] {{WW}} -> [[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|Wind Waker]]
