Usage
A template to display a release date for a game, along with a pretty picture of a country's flag or a system icon (if appropriate). All templates referencing this documentation are used similarly, and all will automatically categorise by the specified date.
Due to the introduction of {{sys}}, the listing of consoles in the third parameter to these templates is inadvisable: use {{sys}} instead.
Note that fictitious dates have been used in the examples below to stop this documentation getting categorised.
Adding IDs
- For more details on this topic, see Template:Syscat.
To add an ID, simply edit {{syscat}} and add it to the list. Make sure everything's correct, and add in all the sensible synonym IDs as extra cases, making sure that all cases are lowercase. Once that's done, update Template:Syscat/ID documentation, adding the new ID.
