Entity page

What you see

1. HeaderPortrait, type, name, other names, the names it was merged from, how many canon facts name it and who edited it last. Edit, Merge… and Delete sit on the right.
2. StorySummary, What canon says (accepted facts that name it, grouped, each with its passage) and a details panel with fields for your project’s medium.
3. TimelineCanon facts that name it, by story time, or in Reading order (the first chapter that tells each one) when they have no story time.
4. RelationshipsEvery canon link to another character, place or item. Open one to see the facts behind it.
5. AppearancesPassages in the latest version of your sources that mention it or its other names; Cited in canon marks the ones canon cites.
6. ImagesConcept art, references and generated images. Any of them can become the portrait.
7. NotesNotes on the text (notes pinned to passages that mention it) and Page notes (free working notes).

Edit the name, type and aliases

1. Select Edit in the header.
2. Change the Name or Type; if canon uses the old name it stays as an alias.
3. Under Aliases, type a nickname, title or full name and select Add.
4. Select Save.

Merge two pages that are the same

1. On the page that should go away, select Merge….
2. Pick the page to keep under Keep this page.
3. Read What happens: which facts will name the kept page, which conflicts close and which change proposals need a fresh analysis.
4. Select the merge button to confirm; the audit log keeps a full copy of the old page.

Set a portrait

1. Select Upload under the portrait, or drop an image on it.
2. Or select Generate, check the Prompt drafted from canon, pick a Style preset and the number of images, then generate.
3. On the Images tab, set any image as the portrait, add a caption, download it or delete it.

Write a summary and notes

1. On the Story tab, select Write or Edit in Summary.
2. On the Notes tab, select Write notes under Page notes.
3. Select Save or Save notes; neither becomes canon.

Canon and editorial text

• Only What canon says, the timeline, relationships and appearances come from canon and your sources.
• Summary, aliases, fields, notes and images are your team’s words. They never become canon and are never used for conflicts or impact.
• A merge is a decision that two names are one: canon facts and later candidates under the old name move to the kept page. See Merges.
• A page that canon still names can’t be deleted, because it would come straight back; merge it instead.
• Image generation may not be available on every instance; uploading always works.
