== Sense-labels ==

A sense-label can do basically anything an Item's top template can do. In some very special cases, sense labels may be used to extend the functionality of the Item. On [[E:Q618|Q618 "Proposed Item"]], each sense-label is loosely treated as a sub-Entity representing a proposed Item from every major philosophy this wiki has assigned a color swatch or text-based philosophy tag; the main Item allows template calls to change its dimensionality or display it in a list-item tag, and so the sense-labels have these outward-facing parameters too. In general, you should think carefully about adding outward-facing parameters to an Item page, given the fact they will be used on other Item pages and could potentially break these other pages if you change anything. However, if one sense-label already has a parameter and the others don't, you should feel free to at least make sure all sense-labels have the same parameters so they all function the same.
