But you may find that paragraphs densely mentioning resources become harder not easier to read due to the icons and color fluctuations. After the first mention of the resource, it might be better for subsequent references to be in plain text or with this template but without an icon.

This template should be used liberally across the wiki, wherever the names of goods are mentioned in paragraphs or in tables. The accompanying icons will help skimming for expert players and orientation for new players.

			Since the rendering of the template ends in a standard wikilink, you can append an ''s'' after the template to write the plural of the good if it isn't already plural. Just like a regular wiki link, <code><nowiki>{{rl\|Reed}}s</nowiki></code> yields {{rl\|Reed}}s, plural, with the ''s'' included in the link text.

	For in-paragraph display, which is presumed to be the most common utilization, the default icon size is <code>small</code>, or {{ImgS}} from [[Template:ImgS]]. For use in tables where more spacing between lines doesn't hurt readability or aesthetics, it is recommended to use <code>med</code>, which will increase the size of the icons to {{ImgM}} (from [[Template:ImgM]]).
