Use the {{Dialog 01}} and {{Link-gaia}} template, by supplying the thread id it will create a subject link to a forum or thread. Understand the parameters and copy/paste the content from the site verbatim.

{{Monthly Collectible nav}}

  • The navigation template links all related MCs. Notice this template contains an extra parameter to sort the mentioned items into their released year. So {{Monthly Collectible nav|<2003>}} if the item is from 2003. This could have been done with Item groups template, but it's too complex.

  • For the Category, the {{ItemGroups}} template will be used; add Monthly Collectibles=true to the template and the page will sort accordingly.

Above the template should be the navigation template to other Collectible Items. The template will sort the page into the year the item was released.
