Template:Prefix/doc

prefix or px places a little box in the top right of real world pages about story ranges, indicating the shortcut to that particular page. A subtle, but easy-to-find clue about the appropriate prefix will make it easier for newer editors to be sure of the proper prefix to use.

Usage
To use, simmply type:

Future development
Ultimately, this should appear on every story page, to make it crystal clear which prefix should be used for which story.

Without that, spacing between the prefix element and the infobox element won't be easily controllable. In particular, all infoboxes just need to have a margin-top value of "auto" for things to sit nicely on the page.
