Summary

This template displays an informative table about a given quest and should be applied at the top of all quests pages.

Parameters

Previously, some parameters were lower-case while others were mixed-case. These have all been switched to lower-case, although the mixed-case parameters will continue to work normally. For consistency, lower-case is preferred, since that's what's in use for most templates.
