What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
The only current way to have your character's profession show up on their article is to go into the article of that profession and add them under the "notible in the feild" section. We should be able to add that information on the charaters own article.Follow up
Whoops, it's "Famous in the field".
Oh yes, and the rank of that character as well
The Team's Response
Thanks for the suggestion! After some discussion, we'll implement this by adding a profession field in the character template that will not be connected to the "Notable in the field" Profession drop-down. This new field will use a newly-designed component that will accept either plain unformatted text or a link/multiple links to another article. Additionally, we might disconnect the "Famous in the field" Profession drop-down from the Character article (i.e. using the drop-down won't change the Character article), since it would become redundant with the new Profession field.

on 2024-12-20 08:12Having it an option on the Chracter template rather than just "Famous in the Field" would be nice.

on 2024-12-16 20:02Aye, I'd like to be able to link a profession without someone needing to be famous in it.

on 2024-12-11 04:28Somehow, I thought there was already a way to do this, or at least the idea had been suggested before. Nevertheless, I'm always in support of adding more linkable fields. God bless and thanks for suggesting this.

on 2024-12-04 20:06Agree, this is good sidebar information. It doesn't need to replace the professions link--it could be "current employment", under the "current state" data.
