This template was created for the sole purpose of establishing an easy to use character info-box within the OS-tan wiki. The infobox you now see is meant to be used for characters that are personifications of operating systems (a.k.a. OSes), other templates will be created specifically for other types of personifications as they come of need.

Properly built character articles should make use of this template as it is easy to use and there is no much code used in the user side. This would prevent any inconsistencies between infoboxes, even more it would have a set standard of required info to be given in order to maintain an acceptable degree of quality.

The current version of the infobox is modified and ported from [[Template:OStaninfo]], which was in turn modified from the original infobox still seen below. Updating this infobox would be much less tedious than replacing all 100+ pages still using this one.

This template was created for the sole purpose of establishing an easy to use character info-box within the OS-tan wiki. The infobox you now see is meant to be used for characters that are personifications of operating systems (a.k.a. OSes), other templates will be created specifically for other types of personifications as they come of need.

Properly built character articles should make use of this template as it is easy to use and there is not much code used in the user side. This would prevent any inconsistencies between infoboxes, even more it would have a set standard of required info to be given in order to maintain an acceptable degree of quality.

The current version of the infobox is modified and ported from Template:OStaninfo, which was in turn modified from the original infobox still seen below. Updating this infobox would be much less tedious than replacing all 100+ pages still using this one.

Usage

This template is meant to reduce effort in the construction of tables and give all people the ability to fill out the infobox quite easily and without hassle. all you need to do is copy the following code and paste it at the beginning of the article you want to create/modify/whatever.

|name = common or complete name of character

|osper = Name of OS this character personifies
|osdev = Developers of this OS
|reldate = First released
|lastrel = last updated release

|apfaction = faction in Annex Project
|roles = misc. roles in storylines
}}
