Personal notes on useful templates and examples
Help:A_quick_guide_to_templates functions that generate wiki markdown content. By default, templates are transclusive so you'll see the template used rather than the compiled text. It has syntax of {{some_function}}
. To use it with substitution (i.e. permanently create text at publish time, such as {{subst:some_function}}
. A real example would be {{subst:Uw-plagiarism}}
which can be found on Template:Uw-plagiarism. A common example would be signing posts with ~~~~
. Templates are platform specific, and can accept arguments. Templates can be nested.
