'''<nowiki>{{roleinfo}}</nowiki>''' is a template for role pages which includes the basic info about that role. It has options which are set by using the <nowiki>|</nowiki> symbol followed by the option name and an equals sign (e.g. |alignmentstatus=) and then whatever comes after the equals sign is included on that line.
It's especially helpful if you can add the role text, item text and the moderator messages from abilities and items to the relevant pages, as and when you get them.
