This is the section for all the different templates that are useful for different articles, depending on what the article is about. If you have any suggestions for templates that can be used in the future, feel free to offer a suggestion in the Talk Page.

If you wish to use the templates in articles, just copy the syntax codes from this page, and paste them into the article. It is recommended that the tags go at the top of the article.


Pooper Tags
Tag Syntax Code Purpose
Pooper {{Pooper}} For any article about a Youtube Pooper

Not for use by anyone who currently doesn't have the tag

Boomer {{boomer}} Those who started pooping between September 2006 and April 2007

Not for use by anyone else unless there is evidence to support they were indeed a Boomer

Banned {{banned|whatfor=(insert reason here)}} For users banned from the forums.
Other
Sources {{media}} For sources and material.
Blacklisted Sources {{blacklist}} For sources and material that could get a poop that uses it removed from Youtube.
Characters {{char}} Characters used in Youtube Poops, whether they are recurring or obscure.
Notable Poops {{poop}} For any poop that may or may not have changed the history of Youtube Poop, whether they got tons of views, they created a trend, or other reasons.
Article maintenance
Delete {{delete}} For an article that is pointless, low-quality, or quite simply doesn't want to be seen again. Could also be seen as a notice to improve the article, but that is made obsolete by the "dirty" template.
Speedy Delete {{speedydelete}} A page up for deletion due to reasons other than low quality.
Stub {{stub}} You should not submit a page that's very short. But when a page you make turns out to be shorter than you'd expected upon pressing "preview", add this tag. Maybe somebody will come and help your cause.
Dirty {{dirty}} For use on pages that need to tone down or remove some information, are full of unpleasant humour, or sometimes pages that need a complete overhaul.
Wanted images {{wantedimages}} This template is intended for character articles where a character has no visual representation. For source or pooper pages, it shouldn't be used as much.
Major Cleanup {{majorcleanup}} or {{new}} This template is for an article that the author feels was submitted incomplete and needs more information, rather than simply being short. It indicates a higher urgency than "stub".
Bias {{bias}} When an article is edged to a specific viewpoint to the point of bashing another one, that's when this template comes as a warning.
Accuracy {{accuracy}} Not all articles on Chewiki are accurate. Some source pages are written by people who have never watched the show. Somebody who's a bit more of a professional on the subject should check things out.

Accessories

The Pooper Box allows you to easily list a few things about a pooper, such as their username, an image of them (just put in the URL of the image), their first poop made, preferred sources, methods and tech (what programs they use), their real name, gender, and nationality.

Take a look at what you can make the Pooperbox say below. Of course, some of the parameters are optional.

{{Pooperbox
|name= - Your username.
|image= - Supply an image.
|caption= - Supply a caption for the image you supply, or just include a message on top of the template.
|1stmade= - First poop you've made.
|sources= - What sources you tend to use. 
|methods= - What poopisms you use. 
|tech= - The video/audio-editing software you use.
|realname= - Your real name.
|sex= - Your gender. Flaunt this information to the members of the other sex.
|noaddsex= - APut this as yes to keep it from automatically categorizing your gender.
|nationality= - Are you Scottish? United King-domian? Amercian?!
|noaddnation= - Put this as yes to keep it from automatically categorizing your nation.
|youtubeaccount= - Your YouTube account. Have people find your poops.
|altyoutubeaccount= - Another YouTube account of yours you'd like to show. 
|altyoutubeaccount2= - Another alt. 
|deviantartaccount= - Show off your DeviantART account.
|altdeviantartaccount - More showing off alts. 
}}

To embed the Pooperbox template easily, just place {{subst:Addbox|anyparametersyouwant}} on a page.


The Character Box works about the same as the Pooper Box, but for various characters used in poops. List their name, gender, age, actor/actress, where they appear, nationality, job, and place an image of them.

{{CharBox
|name=
|image=
|caption=
|shows=
|sex=
|age=
|nationality=
|occupation=
|cast=
}}

A useful feature to better organize quotes for characters is the Poop Quote Template, which can be useful for scenes or dialogue as well as for character pages.

{{poopquote|Character name|Quote}}

For the template to fully work, you must add a 40x40 JPG titled QCharacter Name.jpg, preferably with a 1-px black border surrounding it.


Embedding small Youtube videos

{{#ev:youtube|nS956FdMPfc|320}}

You can place a small embedded youtube video on any page. Just use double inclusion brackets {{ vid followed by a divider | and then the youtube video URL, before closing it again }}

{{vid|nS956FdMPfc}}

This code gives you this video:




{{#ev:youtube|nS956FdMPfc|320}}Every Hotel Mario cutscene

However, if you want to add a caption to the bottom of the video, it doesn't require much extra; just use double inclusion brackets {{ VidCaption followed by a divider | and then the youtube video URL, another |, add text for the caption before closing it again }}

{{VidCaption|nS956FdMPfc|Every Hotel Mario cutscene}}

Captions, though they are now included in the video, can also be used for quick reference to, say, the author, and with other editing techniques you can add links to them.
