on whatever wikipage you want to display the ribbon & medals earned from MPD service. Be sure to include your user or character's name for the NAME variable, but the default is the page name (i.e., if added to the User:Marcusfilby wikipage, then the name will be set to MarcusFilby). The default sets most ribbon medals to "off" mode, hiding them from view. In order to show a ribbon you must type/paste that code into the template & set that specific ribbon's variable to X (or just about anything) and it will become visible; See more examples below. Take notice - variable names are case sensitive. Rank=2 does nothing, RANK=2 will make you a detective.

What is "RANK"?: This variable refers to your current rank in MPD. Ranks range from 0 to 8, with the default being 0 (Cadet).

The purple heart is a special award, given in recognition of acts of self-sacrifice with the intent to save a fellow survivor. Where others would have fled to save themselves, this person stayed to save others. The Purple Heart can be awarded on recommendation of the proposed recipient's CO of suburb command rank or above and is handed over to that recipient personally by the head officer of the appropriate branch.

What is "VR"?: This variable refers to the "Valor Ribbon"

The Valor Ribbon is the highest award given by the DEM Command and is presented only in cases where the recipient proved himself to go above and beyond his line of duty and overcome overwhelming odds by extreme resolve, intelligence and team spirit. The Valor Ribbon can be awarded on recommendation of the proposed recipient's CO of suburb command rank or above and is handed over to that recipient personally by the head officer of the appropriate branch.

Here are some examples:

Constable Jones has just graduated academy and joined the MPD: {{MPDRibbons|NAME=Jones|RANK=1}} or {{MPDRibbons}} (to use the default name and starting rank)

Apletizer has been promoted to MPD Rank 3 (Sergeant), and also earned both the "Field Medicine" and "Scientific Achievement" ribbons: {{MPDRibbons|NAME=Apletizer|RANK=2|FM=X|SA=X}}

CheckeredOne has reached the rank of Superintendant, served three years, and earned every ribbon available: {{MPDRibbons|NAME=CheckeredOne|RANK=6|WM=X|HH=X|FR=X|SR=X|CS=X|RO=X|ER=X|FM=X|SA=X|RSR=X|AR=X|RSM=X|PH=X|VR=X|YEAR=3}}

Of course, we can't stop you from putting ribbons on your chest that you don't deserve, but that's a good way to earn yourself a beat in Ridleybank.
