Category:Template documentation

This category should contain all template documentation pages.

A template is a special type of page that is made so its content can be included in other pages. Since a given template can be included in many pages, it can help reduce duplication and promote a uniform style between page. See Template:Documentation for more details.

Templates are useful for:
 * Creating content that should appear on many pages.
 * Formatting content or data (such as infoboxes) in a way that should be consistent across many pages.
 * Creating a shortcut to a frequently-visited page or for writing things that you repeat often when communicating with others.
 * Replacing long, complicated code so that a page is easier for other users to edit.
 * Protecting parts of a page from editing while leaving other sections open for edits.
