{{suite}} is a template which creates a quicknav for an article "suite"; usually one article which has been broken into many pieces for length.
Add {{suite}} to the top of each page with the article names in a list.
{{suite|content=* [[Optimus Prime (G1)]]
* [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys]]
}}
When {{suite}} is used after a disambig tag, it will automatically switch to a truncated form and 'hug' the template above. (Occupying the empty space to the right of the continuity note without pushing article content down.)
{{subsuite}}
If a page is broken has been broken into many pieces (such as Optimus Prime (G1)) it may be preferable to create a single sub-page with the suite contents rather than updating it on all the pages my hand. Create a page such as Optimus Prime (G1)/suite, and include the template as described above making sure to use the template {{subsuite}} instead.
You can then add the bare tag {{suite}} with no parameters and the "/suite" subpage will be automatically included.
Technical notes
- Template: Subsuite is a redirect to Template: Suite to avoid recursion errors.
