This is a template designed to aid in the linking of characters in Red vs. Blue. Currently, each character has a section in one of the Red vs Blue characters auxiliary articles, so a proper piped link looks something like [[List of characters in Red vs Blue characters#Lopez|Lopez]]. This is somewhat annoying and error-prone to type out. With this template, you would type {{rvbchar|Lopez}}, which produces Lopez, or {{rvbchar|Lopez|Lopez "la Pesado"}} for a different display text: Lopez "la Pesado".
The exhaustive list of valid characters is:
- Sarge
- Simmons
- Grif
- Church
- Donut
- Tucker
- Caboose
- Tex
- Washington
- Red Team
- Blue Team
- Lopez
- Warthog (or Puma or Chupathingy)
- Sheila
- Andy
- Wyoming
- Doc
- O'Malley
- York
- Gary
- Alien
- The Great Destroyer
- The Red Zealot
- Grunts
- Phil
- Vic
- Vic Jr.
- Max Gain
- Jimmy
- Mickey
- Captain Flowers
- Sister
- Junior
- New Alien
- Delta
- The Meta
- The Counselor
- Walter
- York
- Epsilon
- Kimball
If an unknown name is given, the template instead degenerates to usage information linking to this documentation page. Bad character names can therefore be detected by checking Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:rvbchar/doc. Any main namespace pages linking here probably contain a bad character name and should be corrected.
