Moved from main wiki guide

New page

'''''Templates''''' are small pages that can be inserted into other pages. They can be handy syntax shortcuts, can be used to fill gaps in the Wikitext syntax, and are useful for any elements that will be used on multiple pages.

This page summarises this wiki's templates. You can go to their individual pages for more information.

If you have ideas for more you're welcome to experiment, or [[Guide_talk:Game_Making_Tools_Wiki/Templates|open a discussion on the talk page]].

==Templates==

===Block Quote===
※ [[Template:blockquote]]

For in-line quotes the <nowiki><q></nowiki> element should suffice, but for blockquotes you should use the [[Template:blockquote|blockquote template]]:—

<nowiki>{{blockquote|quote|source}}</nowiki>

—where you replace 'quote' with the text you're quoting, and 'source' with the name and location (URL, etc.) of the source.

===Nota Bene===
※ [[Template:nb]].

For inserting notes that need to stand-out a bit.

<nowiki>{{nb|note}}</nowiki>

—where you replace 'note' with the note you wish to highlight.
