-<!-- Any interesting information regarding the product that isn't obvious by reading the product. Maybe some graphical element, a behind-the-scenes story, some cut material from one of the authors, whatever. Also, if the book is Black Dog or Year of the Lotus or whatever, that information goes here as well. Example from Aberrant: -->
-<!-- The Aberrant logo consists of two elements: the blocky outer part and a messy, scribbed inner part. This inner portion was used during initial advertising for Aberrant, as far back as [[1997]]'s [[Trinity]] release. The center of the two R's were replaced by the number 9, forming a 99, letting purchasers know [[1999|the year]] Aberrant was supposed to come out.
+==Memorable Quotes==
-If you look closely at the [[:Image:AberrantLogo.png|Aberrant logo]], you can see the 99 is still there. -->

-===Memorable Quotes===
-<!-- Any memorable bits of text or discussion between characters. No more than a couple of dozen words. Just stuff that makes you go "cool" or makes you smile or whatever. -->
 ==Characters==
+(...)
-<!-- Any major characters featured in the book. Major means major to the book in question - I don't care if Saulot walks by in the background of a novel if the book is about Calebros. Characters should be in the following format: -->
-<!-- ;[[Character name]] : Short description of who they are -->
-<!-- Next, follow with all the minor characters. Here's where you'd mention Saulot in the example above. -->
-<!-- * [[Character name]], Short description -->
-<!-- Remember that titles aren't included in links unless it's part of their name. So it's Dr. [[Douglas Netchurch]], but [[Doctor Worm]]. -->
-==References==
+==Terminology==
+(...)
-<!-- This is the same as above, but just other things instead of characters. Events like the [[Time of Thin Blood]], years mentioned like [[1476 (TU)]], creatures like a [[basilisk]], elements like [[psi]], in-game media like [[Paradigma]], and so on. This is just a simple list. -->
