Template:MobyGames developer/doc Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:MobyGames_developer/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:MobyGames developer. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template uses the Wikidata property:

• MobyGames person ID (P3913) (see uses)

This template is for generating links to profiles of individual developers (people, not companies) at the MobyGames website. Please only add it in instances where it provides additional or strongly-supporting information to the article.

{{MobyGames developer |id= |name= }}

Fields:

• id: the MobyGames catalogue number for the developer (internal to MobyGames, but used in their URLs). The Wikidata property MobyGames person ID (P3913) will be used by default.
• name: the text of the link. The pagename is used if it's left blank or omitted.

The MobyGames developer catalogue number is the number near the end of the URL of the profile page e.g. http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,817/ is the URL for John Romero's profile; his MobyGames catalogue number is 817. Use this number in the id field of the template.

* {{MobyGames developer |id=817 |name=John Romero's profile}}

renders as:

• John Romero's profile at MobyGames

Alternative, using positional parameters:

* {{MobyGames developer|817|John Romero's profile}}

renders as:

• John Romero's profile at MobyGames

Alternatively, because John Romero has his developer ID set in Wikidata (at John Romero (Q280045)), on his article page we can just use:

* {{MobyGames developer}}

• {{MobyGames}} for linking to game entries at the MobyGames website
• {{MobyGames company}} for linking to company profile at the MobyGames website
