What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

Most os article template are more micro. I miss options to something as planet, world, or something like that    

What are other uses for this feature request?

Any project with multiple planets or portals to other worlds

The Team's Response

Hello beans!   This did not receive significant support from the community. The reason being that this case, to date, is covered.    
  • A planet is a Geographic Locations.
  • There is already a TYPES in the Geography template covering all types of planets, satellites/moons, rogue planets, asteroids and planetoids.
  • if there are PROMPTS on this template that are missing, I will be very happy to discuss them and for a feature request to be added for them to be explored by the community
  • As a note to some of the voters. A world in World Anvil is not a single planet, A world can be anything from an ant farm to the whole of the MULTIVERSE. Do not use a world per planet - it will make linking and management infinitely hard with no reason.

      Anything that helps organize is a good thing. Though I will be stuck on this current world for a while.

      I personally feel like this would be very usefull. I'm running a campaign that deals with the active use of different worlds other than the main one. Additionally, the campaign is part of a large multiverse thats really hard to manage when it comes to organization. It would be cool to be able to make a multiverse, put universes into it, maybe even put galaxies into that if necesarry, then be able to put planets into that. When I explain it this way it probably sounds too convoluted but I'm sure theres a way this could work with a reasonable level of management. most of it would just have to do with being able to like worlds in more ways than just "well... some of the articles refrence eachother"

      I'm mostly fine with using geography but planets have critical specific properties such as day length, year length, gravity, atmospheric composition & density, orbital eccentricity & etc... A template extension for the most important of these physical properties would be nice.

      Check out Ethnis - one of World Anvil's Featured Worlds. It's a sci-fi setting that has many planets. It's just one of the many science fiction/science fantasy World Anvil Worlds that use multiple planets, so I recommend you check out what others do to gain inspiration on ways of arranging your stuff.   As stated by others, Planets are Geography, as are Planes of Existence, Galaxies, Parallel Universes, Universes, and High Schools.

      Like others have said, this is currently handled by the Location template, which has types like planet, asteroid, Galaxy, and even omniverse and multiverse.

      The Geography template already does this, if you want to extend it, it's also possible with the "Article Templates" function, implementing this would be a waste of time imo
