The use of "tavernkeeper" as opposed to "innkeeper" may cause some conflicts and confusion. I don't recall tavernkeeper used by RJ (maybe he did and I've forgotten) but certainly BS is using tavernkeeper frequently in ToM and maybe we need to create this occupation? For future template use throughout WoT. Ronmamita 09:21, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Most occupations will automatically categorize with the inclusion of the {{Character}} template. It may be a red link, but it categorizes. I've created the categories of Category:Taverns and Category:Tavernkeepers. ---- Willie - HtS 18:06, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

This works great, the red bothered me and I guess we must capitalize the first letter; this coding is new for me. Thank you! Sincerely, Ronmamita 19:57, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, as far as the template is concerned, capitalization doesn't matter. It just looks better. What the character template does is take the occupation and adds an "s" to it. So "occupation=Tavernkeeper" categorizes as "Category:Tavernkeepers." ---- Willie - HtS 20:03, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Fantastic! Thank you again. Oh, before I forget, what standard is used for adding an existing image to a new page? I've used the flags and country when I thought it appropriate but not until I saw your edit that added the wheel icon for an unknown affilliatio/nationality character have I thought that some existing images would be useful for newly created characters where little is known.

You are correct. If the person doesn't have an image of them (i.e. Rand, Elayne, Mat, ect), their nationality/affiliation determines their flag. If no flag is available (i.e. Asha'man, Unknown Nationality, Aiel, ect), use the appropriate icons listed here. Happy editing! ---- Willie - HtS 21:10, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
