So you want to post a log...

When you want to post an RP Log, you make a page combining the OOC date and a catchy name. For clarity, using the international date is easiest, so for example YYYY-MM-DD - Scene Title works great.

Next, you copy the template template:Log to the page:

{{Log
| Synopsis           = What was the scene about? 
| Characters         = Characters who were in the scene
| NPCs               = NPCs present
| Thanks             = In case you wish to thank People who NPCed... etc - Optional
| Location           = Where did it ICly take place?
| Date of Scene      = When did this OOCly take place?
}} 

Filling this out should be simple: replace the questions and reminders with entries. Names of characters should be written in between [[]] to create links to those character pages. An example would look like this:

{{Log
| Synopsis           = Jack tries to stab Jane
| Characters         = [[Jack the Ripper]], [[Jane]]
| NPCs               = Metropolitan Police
| Thanks             = Meridian for running the Police
| Location           = Dark Alleyway in London
| Date of Scene      = 10.12.1000
}}
