විකිපීඩියා:TEMPLATE

WP:TEMPLATE and various other shortcuts redirect here. For information on what templates are and how the template namespace is intended to be used, please see Wikipedia:Template namespace.

This page provides an index for a wide range of standard templates in use within Wikipedia. It also gives an overview of what subjects are covered within each heading.

Using this page

The bold links at the top of each cell lead to detailed pages that describe the templates in that section in detail, and how and when to use them.

If you cannot find the template you are looking for, please click on the section headers that seem most relevant, since there may be templates for a particular usage covered on the detailed pages, but not listed in the table below.

If after searching, you still cannot find the template you need, you can request it on Wikipedia:Requested templates. For help on creating templates, see Help:Template, or contact a user who has identified themselves as an adept template coder. Note that in order to maintain consistent design of templates there have been significant discussions about a variety of templates at both Wikipedia talk:Article message boxes and Wikipedia talk:Talk page templates.

A more comprehensive category system may also be viewed at Category:Wikipedia templates.

Wiki templates

The wiki templates are powerful tools for editing Wikipedia articles. A "wiki template" is a kind of sub-template, and the "Wikipedia Edit Language" uses the notation {{template-name}} for the sub-template reference.

Technical note: "Wiki template references" are embedded on the "Wikipedia Edit Language", as a web template embedded language, using the open {{ and close }} hooks, for enclose the wiki template language syntax, where valid names and valid instructions can be used, like template reference, as {{disambig}}, and conditions, as {{#if:{{{variable_foo|}}} | foo yes |foo is blank }}.
