Usage instructions

This sidebar template is a modification of the Template:Sidebar for those characters missing in action. Along with the date of the character's disappearance, this sidebar will automatically calculate the character's age at the time he or she went MIA.

All you need to do is add a MIA YEAR (the year the character died). You can also add a MIA MONTH and MIA DATE. Otherwise, it will assume the character was MIA on January 1 of the MIA YEAR.

Paste the following code into the top of an article and then take out Brockton's info and put in your own character's information. Valid colors are Red, Gold, Blue, Teal, Violet, Black, Silver, Green.

Not all ranks are available in all colors. Use full rank names (except for Lieutenant JG and Lt. Commander, and Lt. Colonel). Pipstyle can be changed from Default to DS9 or Slanted.

For date of birth, add a leading zero for single digit months and dates.

Image

If you have an image for your character, add the file name for it such as EnsignSmith.jpg in the last field.

Do NOT put [[ or ]] or File: in the name. The template will automatically resize your image to fit the sidebar.

If you don't have an image for your character, just leave that field blank and a placeholder will show up instead. You can use the "EXTRA" field if you want to add something else to the bottom of your sidebar such as another image, a badge such as the Featured Bio Contest winner badge or links to subpages such as an academy transcript or a medical record. If you don't want to add anything, just leave it blank as well.
