Hi, I'd like to figure out a way to convert this page format: http://klondike.wikia.com/wiki/Clay_(Item)

Into a template so that users can put in all of the information without having to dig through the code. Problem is that I'm terrible at variables.

Basically all of the items are configured case sensitive with first letters capitalized. So if someone were to type in "dry twigs" it would need to be changed to Dry_Twigs_(Item). So I would need somewhere to put in switches accounting for any variation of that to be converted to that...but where on earth do I do that?

I also need for the other sections, to be able to have the Tabs "Criteria of and Rewarded From" allow for variable numbers of quests to be added. Some will have few quests and won't need extra input boxes. Others will have 10+ quests and more input boxes will be needed to appear so that more quests can be inserted. How is that done? I've tried it but I keep getting var:ik code put into the title of the input fields.

Under "Material for" tab, would it be possible to insert something like a small table? like the recipe style found on this page: http://klondike.wikia.com/wiki/Pottery_(Building) or my failed attempt to make a template on this one- http://klondike.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Klondike_Infobox_Recipe  which was tested here: http://klondike.wikia.com/wiki/User:Eclaire.Pastry/Personal7

I hope this is a little bit clear on what I'm trying to do. Am I trying to do too much? Is what I even want possible? Is this something a template can even do or should I do everything manually? Please help.
