Help:Templates

A "template" is a small Shifti page in the template namespace that one can insert into the body of another page via a process called "transclusion". Templates are denoted using curley brackets instead of square brackets.

The following content warning templates may be used at the start of a story page to alert readers to potentially displeasing content they may encounter in the story:
