Templates
How are templates useful
- Templates can act like a "rubber-stamp" and like a "cookie-cutter".
- Wiki-page editors may create a template that contains commonly-used boiler-plate text, and use it repeatedly, like a rubber-stamp, in many different Wiki-articles.
- Wiki-page editors may use variables in templates, to create custom individualized results, but with a common behavior regardless of which article invokes the template.
Template Documentation
- Templates are documented either in the template itself (when the template is short and simple), or in a "/doc" sub-page. The "/doc" sub-page link will be found at the bottom of the template, and will be the template's name with "/doc" appended to it (without quotes). Example: Template:Cat_State's documentation is located at: Template:Cat_State/doc
Template List
- Template-names have been chosen with the purpose of them sorting alphabetically in such a way that templates with similar purposes will naturally sort together in the list.
- The grouping-by-purpose is reflected in the lists below.
