|authslug = 
|authorization_name = 
|authorizer = 
|schedule_frequency = 
|discord_channel_link = 
|discord_channel_name = 
|prerequisites = 
|step1 = 
|step2 = 
|step3 = 
|step4 = 
|step5 =

}}
<!-- List off links to tool pages that this auth is required for -->

Finally save the Authorizations page

Linking to the blue authorization info box from tool pages

Once the updated Authorizations loads, under the blue authorization box you just created you'll see "Wiki snippet for admins: [Expand]. Click on this, copy the snippet code, and paste it into the tool's page under the Template:EquipmentPage template. Save that page and you'll see the blue authorization box there.
