Shipping Manifestos

From Lolitics Wiki

Shipping manifestos are articles designed to highlight a particular pairing (or threesome, or foursome, etc), explore the couple's dynamics and the basis for their love, and list all the canonical support for it. This is where you put your microanalysis of how Politician A's ruffled hair on This Week indicates he was making out with Politician B in the green room before the show.

Template: Template:Shipping Manifesto

{{subst:Shipping Manifesto | person 1 = [[First Person]] | person 2 = [[Second Person]] | party 1 = Name of 1st person's party | party 2 = Name of 2nd person's party | type = Type of ship}}

Type possibilities: "Pairing", "Threesome"

The template is designed to accommodate ships with up to five participants. If there are more than two just add in "person 3", "party 3", etc as parameters. If there are less than 5 you'll have to delete the extra parties from the infobox to get the header gradient to look right.

There's also a "Cross-Party" category you can add if your pairing is cross-party, but it's not a template parameter, so add it after substitution.

Example: Brycow

{{subst:Shipping Manifesto | person 1 = [[Chris Bryant]] | person 2 = [[John Bercow]] | party 1 = Labour | party 2 = None | type = Pairing}}
