Tutorial on adding officers to the Legacy of a Thousand Suns wiki, and having it work properly with wiki. This wiki has a number of temples, and certain steps must be followed to work with the templates. Plus it saves a lot of work letting templates do most of the work.

2) Edit the officers page. Page down and insert the appropriate line alphabetically (easiest is to copy/paste and then edit an existing line). For instance {{LotS/OfficerRow|Loq And Quax}}
