Module:Characters

Renders Characters records from Data:Characters.json on index and detail pages.

• infobox — infobox for one record (used via Template:Characters infobox)
• index — sortable index table on Characters
• body / crossRefs — per-section renderers invoked from detail pages

Bot-published: the module and its Data: page are regenerated on re-publish. Restyle via the per-section templates rather than editing page wikitext.

-- Module:Characters — the Characters category module.
--
-- WHAT IT DOES
--   Renders Characters infoboxes, body sections, cross-references and the
--   category index. This module is intentionally tiny: it only binds
--   the category name and forwards to Module:Core, which computes
--   everything from the source Data:Characters.json at render time (see
--   that Data page's own `description` for the record fields, and
--   Help:Wiki Editing for the architecture guide). To change HOW
--   Characters pages render, edit Module:Core; to change the DATA, edit
--   Data:Characters.json.
