ViewsUsing TemplatesFrom Young ComposersThis article is meant to be brief and to the point. If you do not understand its content, chances are you should not be doing it anyways.
Using TemplatesTo use a pre-existing template, simply type {{template name}} at the desired point in your article and specify all required parameters. Templates Within TemplatesYou can use pre-existing templates to help you create your template. An example of this is the Inappropriate Person Template. This template requires 3 simple parameters and will create a notice like the ones on Wikipedia. Although you can specify width, background colour and many other variables, we would like that all templates follow the same format and style such as the one illustrated in the Inappropriate Person Template. Editors and other staff members will routinely convert any non-conforming templates to the preferred format and style. Creating TemplatesTo create a template, type in the page’s search bar the desired name of your template. If it doesn’t exist, click “Create this page”. This page will become your new template. CodingThere are many different ways to code a template, depending on how it is structured. Some are done using HTML, some Wikicode and some use a combination of both. Current List of TemplatesIf you are unsure if your template's purpose is already covered by an existing template, you can refer to this list. If you have created a template, please add it to the list. |
