Completing the fields

Only the Name field is required, the others can be left blank or the field omitted completely.

Name: This is the name that will appear in the displayed block. Generally, this template will be used once on a page for the subject of the biography, so this is likely to be the same as the page title. It may be simply the commonly known user name, or a combination of real name and username depending upon what is known.

Dates: Date of birth and date of death, both in the form "17 January 1965". Omit any parts that are unknown, e.g. if only the month and year of death are known then use that, e.g. "June 2018".

Realname: The real name of the subject.

Location: Place residence at death.

Bio: Biography, giving as much relevant detail as you feel is useful.

Memberships: List any forum or community group memberships. Include links to user profiles, if available.

Remembrances: Detail any community or public memorial or notices, including links.
