Remember to use "Races: <Race name>" as your article title.
Also--keep in mind that this is just a suggested template. The closer you keep to the form, the more contiguous the Almanac will be, but if you omit some fields and add others, no one will sue you. The purpose of these articles is to include the information people will need in order to incorporate these people into their stories.
