m Template:Series moved to Template:Series bar: I'm creating a second series template that will be a compact box floating in the upper right corner, so I'm changing the name of this one to something more specific

There's also an optional "first" parameter you can use to insert a link for jumping back to the first story in the series, in case readers jump in in the middle. Alternately, you can provide a link in the "series" parameter for this purpose.

This template is meant to provide a standard, tidy way of linking together stories that form a series that's meant to be read in a particular order. It takes three parameters, all optional: series, previous, and next. "series" is very freeform; it's the text that's inserted in the middle of the template (defaults to "This story is part of a series"). "previous" and "next" are meant to be links to the previous and next stories. For example, the following template call:

{{series bar
|previous= [[User:Joe Bloe/Cheesy Menace|Cheesy Menace]]
|series= The Magic Cheese Saga
|next= [[User:Joe Bloe/Magic Cheese 2: Electric Boogaloo|Electric Boogaloo]]
}}

results in:

Preceded by:
Cheesy Menace
The Magic Cheese Saga Succeeded by:
Electric Boogaloo

Omitting parameters results in their defaults being used. For example, the following template call:

{{series bar| next= [[User:Joe Bloe/Magic Cheese 2: Electric Boogaloo|Electric Boogaloo]]}}

Results in:

Preceded by:
None
This story is part of a series Succeeded by:
Electric Boogaloo

There's also an optional "first" parameter you can use to insert a link for jumping back to the first story in the series, in case readers jump in in the middle. Alternately, you can provide a link in the "series" parameter for this purpose.


{{series bar
|series= [[User:Joe Bloe/The Magic Cheese|The Magic Cheese Saga]]
|first= [[User:Joe Bloe/The Magic Cheese|The Magic Cheese]]
}}

results in:

Preceded by:
None
The Magic Cheese Saga
(First: The Magic Cheese)
Succeeded by:
