Template:OSinfobox/doc

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.

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.
