Category:Templates

Templates for creating specialized pages. The links below may be to the discussion pages for a given template, because categorizing a template that is intended to be Subst:ed into a page, will copy everything from that template into the page, which may unintentionally categorise the page, or make it look wonky.

Adding the category to a template

Add the category to the template front page. Use <noinclude> and </noinclude> to add the category and usage commentaries.

Example

{| style="color: blue"
...please pretend that there is template content here...
|Ditto.
|}<noinclude>[[Category:Templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]</noinclude>

If the wiki were much larger, the additional server load caused by the {{PAGENAME}} magic word would be unbearable. Due to this wiki's small size the increase in server load should be negligible.
