Editing Quake Wiki:Entity documentation project

The Entity Documentation Project is a joint project to complete all the documentation linked through the '''[[Entity guide]]''' in a cohesive fashion.

== Known Participants ==
Currently the following users are participating in this project:
* [[User:Than]]
* [[User:Hectate]]

== Article Layout ==
If you're comfortable with wiki editing just follow the style of the articles that exist, the [[func_button]] and [[func_door]] articles are excellent examples. If you're not, you could copy the below article template and insert the necessary information where it is needed. Alternatively, simply adding the relevant data for someone else to format later is still helpful.

 <nowiki>
The '''entity_name''' is a blah blah blah; basic entity information goes here.

== Usage ==
The [[Entity name tutorial]] article has some examples of the creation and use of this entity.

== Attributes ==
Some basic information about the entity's use of attributes goes here, such as how it uses an angle given to it.

=== Keys ===
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| ! bgcolor="#eeeeee" width="80px" | ''targetname'' || The name of the entity. 
|-
| ! bgcolor="#eeeeee" | ''target'' || The targetname of the entity that will be triggered by this entity.
|-
| ! bgcolor="#eeeeee" | ''keyvaluename'' || Additional keyvalues and descriptions can be appended in this format.
|}

===Spawnflags===
The button supports [[Entity#Spawnflags|standard spawnflags]] for difficulty and deathmatch presence.
{| class="wikitable collapsible collapsed"
|-
! Flag !! Common Name
|-
| 256 || Not on Easy
|-
| 512 || Not on Normal
|-
| 1024 || Not on Hard
|-
| 2048 || Not in Deathmatch
|}
It also has the following additional flags enabled:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Flag !! Common Name !! Description
|-
| flag # || Some Name ||| Description of spawnflag
|}

If copied to a new page, the above markup should look like the below for you to begin editing.

-If you're comfortable with wiki editing just follow the style of the articles that exist, the [[monster_shalrath]], [[func_button]] and [[func_door]] articles are excellent examples. If you're not, you could copy the below article template and insert the necessary information where it is needed. Alternatively, simply adding the relevant data for someone else to format later is still helpful. Also, even if you don't have ALL the data, some data is better than no data, so feel free to fill in bits of a page, or make modifications to the existing data if you know that it is incorrect.

-A bit about the Infobox_entity code near the start:
-Delete the commonname field if the entity does not have a common name. An example of a common name is Vore, which is the common name of monster_shalrath. Vore also has a [[Vore|wiki page]], so in this case, it would be linked. An entity with no common name would be info_null, or ambient_drone.
-Also delete the precache field if the entity does not precache any models or sounds. You can find out if anything is precached by looking in the entity's qc file (usually near the bottom).
