The Member Of Template

This template serves to make links and categorization of team membership easier.

Standard Usage

{{M|Fantastic Four}}

Used on Reed Richards (Earth-616), makes a link to Fantastic Four (Earth-616), and categorizes his page as Category:Fantastic Four members.

Used on Reed Richards (Earth-58163), makes a link to Fantastic Four (Earth-58163), and categorizes his page as Category:Fantastic Four members (Earth-58163). That category should have {{Members Category}} placed on it so that it will be a sub-category of Category:Fantastic Four members.

Alternate Universe Team Membership

If the character was part of a team from another reality other than his own, say Dark Beast, for example, was a member of the 616 X-Men for a while, but is from Earth-295. Do this:

{{M|X-Men (Earth-616)}}

His page will have a link to X-Men (Earth-616) placed on it, and he will be categorized as Category:X-Men members.

Unofficial Team Name

If the character's team is officially named one thing, but unofficially called something else, a second section can be added to the template to show the unofficial name in the link.

For example, the Stepford Cuckoos of Earth-91172 was officially Stepford Cuckoos (Earth-91172), but were mostly called "Two-In-One".

So this was placed on both members' pages:

{{M|Stepford Cuckoos|Two-In-One}}

You'll notice that each character is still categorized as Category:Stepford Cuckoos members (Earth-91172), and the link still links to Stepford Cuckoos (Earth-91172), but the link shows Two-In-One.
