This template generates entire pages for individual weapons in the game, such as Longsword (not to be confused with Longswords) or Worgfang.

Here's an example of usage (note this has intentionally wrong information because it tries to showcase as many different parameters as possible):

{{WeaponPage
| <!-- See here for tips on how to use this template: https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Template:WeaponPage -->
| image = Longsword Icon.png
| description = Optional description for special items.  Nonmagical and simple +1/+2/etc. will be auto-generated, so no need for those.  Others will also have a sensible default description generated for them so strictly speaking you can always leave this empty.
| quote = The in-game flavor text in the item's tooltip, usually told in the narrator's voice.
| category = martial
| melee or ranged = melee
| handedness = versatile
| type = Longswords
| rarity = <!-- Empty for common, otherwise: uncommon, rare, veryrare, legendary -->
| enchantment = <!-- Empty for none, otherwise: +1, +2, +3, +4, +5 -->
| damage = 1d8 + 1 Slashing
| versatile damage = 1d10 + 2
| extra damage = 1d4 Fire
| ammunition = <!-- Here we have yes/no properties, which MUST BE EMPTY if you mean "no"!  Never actually type "no"! -->
| finesse =
| heavy =
| light =
| loading =
| reach =
| thrown =
| can't dual wield =
| dippable = yes
| weight kg = 1.35
| weight lb = 2.7
| price = 75
| main hand only =
* {{Tenacity}}
| special =
* '''Super Cool Ability:''' Once per [[Long Rest]] you can use this awesome ability of this weapon.
| actions =
* {{Pommel Strike}}
* {{Lacerate}}
* {{Rush Attack}}
}}

Note that the template even adds the page to the correct categories. And for the same reason, it shouldn't be invoked here for the purpose of showing how the results look; that would result in this template page being added to the categories to which the weapon type pages are added.
