Set of templates used to aid in formatting transcribed [[dialogue]] trees. Dialogue trees should exclusively use asterisks or <code><nowiki><ul>/<li></nowiki></code> elements.

;[[Template:Dialogue start]]
: Starts a dialogue. Also tags a page as a transcript.
;[[Template:Dialogue end]]
: Ends a dialogue
;[[Template:dopt]]
: Indicates a (numbered in the game) player option in a dialogue. We don't have numbers because they can vary depending on player flags and dialogue progress.
;[[Template:dcond]]
: Indicates a prerequisite for a dialogue option to be selected, or for a character to respond in a certain way.
;[[Template:dact]]
: Indicates some kind of action, optionally with a link to an anchor on the same page. Includes the following:
