Overview

Slash Commands in City of Heroes can be typed from the chat box or used in Binds.

This article aims to act as a reference in keeping the individual articles somewhat uniform.

Naming convention

Slash Command articles are to follow this format: "command (Slash Command)". The space before the parentheses is a mediawiki standard that allows for a piped link trick.

We will NOT be using "SlashCommand:command".

Many chat commands (/team, /coalition) have articles about the thing that they have a channel for. The Team article describes a team and links to its related slash command.
Most other commands (/slashchat, /pow_exec_name) do not, but instead have a redirect from pow_exec_name to pow_exec_name (Slash Command).

This way there's no confusion that this is a slash command.

Default

Use this code to get started on slash command articles.

==Slash Command==
{{SlashCommandArticle
|command=command
|options=options
|aliases=(optional)
|note=Semi Brief but descriptive note on the command
}}

== Other section (common use, examples, detail) ==
Some commands have unique properties that need to be explained. Here is the place to do it.

== Related ==

* {{slashcommand|other_command|options}}
* {{slashcommand|another_command}}
* [[Guide to command]]
{{ Commands NavBox}}

Template details

  • {{slashcommand}} - creates a link to the command specified with a preceding slash. see page for more parameters
  • {{bindcommand}} - creates a link to the command specified without a preceding slash.
  • {{SlashCommand}}(capital "C") - Creates a section called == Slash Command == with many options to fill out that section.
  • {{SlashCommandArticle}} - does not create a section, however it does place the article in Category:Slash Commands. Similar options to SlashCommand
These templates were mostly created by me several years ago when I was, as EABrace puts it, a wiki-noob. I will not be offended if someone finds a better naming scheme or use for them. (hint hint) -Konoko
