User blog:KingOfYou115/Irk Logging Templates

Okay, first blog.

Heyo, anyone reading this! I'm KingOfYou115, the guy in the background that no one pays attention to. So I have a shenanigans page for all of my Irk logs, and unlike some shenanigan pages, I put a lot of time into making everything look nice. But to speed up the process of logging, I created four (so far) templates that allow me to not edit long lines of code to get join, leave, /me, and /nick messages to look good. They also link every instance of a person's nick to their user page, allowing for readers to quickly go to their page or identify who is behind the nickname. If anyone wants to use them, feel free to. Below are each of the templates, as well as the source code to write to use the templates:

IrkJoin

 * The "user" field is where you put the name of the user (on the wiki) to link the message to their user page.


 * The "nick" field is where you put the name of the user (on the Irk) to make the line appear the same as if it was on the Irk.

IrkLeave

 * The "user" field is where you put the name of the user (on the wiki) to link the message to their user page.


 * The "nick" field is where you put the name of the user (on the Irk) to make the line appear the same as if it was on the Irk.


 * The "reason" field is where you put the text that appeared in the parentheses (the reason for leaving).

IrkMe

 * The "user" field is where you put the name of the user (on the wiki) to link the message to their user page.


 * The "nick" field is where you put the name of the user (on the Irk) to make the line appear the same as if it was on the Irk.


 * The "action" field is where you put the text that the user was doing.

IrkNick

 * The "user" field is where you put the name of the user (on the wiki) to link the message to their user page.


 * The "nick1" field is where you put the name of the user (on the Irk, before the nick change) to make the line appear the same as if it was on the Irk.


 * The "nick2" field is where you put the name of the user (on the Irk, after the nick change) to make the line appear the same as if it was on the Irk.

'''Note: use | instead of a | (pipe) when the nickname includes a | in it. See above example. This applies to ALL FOUR templates.'''

This was mostly for me, and matches my log style, however feel free to use these templates in your own logs if you want.
