Hey guys. A lot of people have for their nations wikipedia-style factbook entries for their nations. But do you have one for your ruler? Now you can! Here with my easy-to-use guide for a wikipedia-style factbook entry for a significant person in your nation. You can credit me at the bottom of the factbook entry if you want. Please post links to your factbook entry so I can add them as examples here.

Here's the code:
Code: Select all

You should use mine; it's an anatomically-correct recreation of the wikipedia version, using NS-allowed coding to get it as close as possible to the real thing. It's not perfect, but it's the closest you'll ever get. I even managed to get the colors for the "Office" block (you know, where is says like, "44th President of the United States" and below that "Incumbent" or something like that. I guarantee you it's the closest possible recreation.

I know, I'm just saying that if you do want a wikipedia style one, then mine's the closest possible version. The title of the post is "Wikipedia-style factbook entry for a Person Guide", after all.

Oh I shall, mine isn't for wiki-style, it's for introspective biographies, you know, character profiles.

This is excellent.

I've been fiddling with the thing for a bit -- it's still under construction and all, but hell, I'm a showoff:

Moscareinas is an unexpectedly prosperous democratic republic whose territories include 54% of the western Indian Ocean, the IRL BIOT, Comoros, Mayotte, the Seychelles, Mauritius, and Reunion. Not included: Madagascar.

Nice, but the PM is still listed as the incumbent opposition leader.

And you've got everything centered; it's not really wikipedia-like as much.

Difference in tastes -- I like it more when centered. I'll see once I fill up the surrounding space.
