How to Add a Reign

We will be creating a page for Lord Bubba and Lady Bitsy, new royal heirs.

Create a page for the royal couple.
1. If this is Their first reign together, call the page "Bubba_and_Bitsy". E.g. Manfred and Morag
2. If this is not the first time this couple has reigned together, create a secondary page and call it "Bubba_II_and_Bitsy_II". (See Reign Numbering and #More Reign Numbering for instructions.) Move the original reign page to "Bubba_I_and_Bitsy_I". Create a new page "Bubba_and_Bitsy" and on it add links to both reigns. E.g. Steingrim and Lenora (If in doubt, just create the new "Bubba_II_and_Bitsy_II" page and ask a more experienced An Tir Wiki user to sort out the rest.)
Add this code to the new reign page: {{Template:ReignTemplate}}
Save the page.
Open it for editing again.
Replace the instructions in brackets and the sample text with real information

In addition to Reign Numbering, the following numbering standard has been used here:

If a royal person changed names between reigns, the numbering follows the person not the name. E.g. Arthur changed his name to Eirikr after his first reign and went on to sit the thrones twice more. He is Arthur I, Eirikr II, and Eirikr III
If one of the royal couple has reigned before but not with this particular consort, the reign page is "Bubba and Bitsy", but the heading on the page should be adjusted to "Bubba II and Bitsy". E.g. Manfred and Morwyn
