Technical details
The color of the template is dependent on what the comic status of the character is:
- alive
- undead
- dead
- unknown
Added by:
- | status = alive
for example.
Update: All color changes and added new statuses can be done at Template:color
The template class coding (ext-status-) which changes the colors of the template on what status a user enters, is located at MediaWiki:Common.css.
The box is created by ext-infobox.
