Infobox comics character instructions

{{Infobox comics character}} is currently being revamped. These instructions may be slightly out of date.

The infobox should use {{infobox comics character}} as shown below. Copy and paste the following text at the beginning of the comic book character's article:

{{Infobox comics character<!--Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics-->
| character_name = 
| image     = 
| caption   = 
| publisher = 
| debut     = 
| creators  = 
| alter_ego = *
| full_name =
| species   = <!-- optional -->
| homeworld = <!-- optional -->
| alliances = <!-- optional -->
| partners  = <!-- optional -->
| supports  = <!-- optional -->
| aliases   = <!-- optional -->
| powers    = 
}}

*- Previously titled "real_name"

  • Parameter notes:
    • Do not delete a parameter - leave the field blank if there is nothing to enter.
    • The image should be at most 250px wide and must not be thumbnailed. For example: [[Image:abc.jpg|250px]]
      • If you find the image to be too tall, reduce the size below 250px.
    • The caption will appear below the image. Keep it short, but indicate the comic book and issue # if it is from a comic book, in the form Wolverine #17 (typed as ''Wolverine'' #17)
    • For the debut field, provide the first appearance of the character. Example: Incredible Hulk #181.
    • For multiple creators or powers, separate each with <br />. For example: creators=Stan Lee<br />Jack Kirby
    • Alter ego and Full name are mutually exclusive; the former is for articles where the character has a superhero name, the latter is for characters that go by a shortened version of their given name or a nickname.
    • Affiliations or alliances include any current or previous team affiliations. Please stick to notable affiliations.
    • Partners include any current or previous partners. Please stick to notable partnerships. Also, please avoid "employee/employer" relationships.
    • Aliases include any significant alternate names. It should not include nicknames, epithets, or short-lived names.
    • Powers include significant current and previous powers, and other notable abilities. This should be a short list, without description. Keep longer prose for the article text.
