This template:Wikia boilerplate is a boilerplate template. It is to be used only for Wikia-hosted wiki sites (subsequently branded as 'Fandom powered by Wikia', now branded soley as 'Fandom'). To correctly use this Wikia template, replace WIKINAME in the sample URLs with the specific Wikia Fandom sub-domain name; for example, StarWars.Fandom.com
. Please note that non-English Fandom URLs have a notable change of URL schema compared to their former Wikia URLs, examples; from De.StarWars.Wikia.com
to StarWars.Fandom.com/de/
, or from Es.StarWars.Wikia.com
to StarWars.Fandom.com/es/
, etc. When completed and saved, this specific Wikia boilerplate calls on our default template:Wiki to generate the standard 'infobox' as used on all wiki site articles here on WikiIndex.
When adding or amending a date for the statistics (number of pages - technically, part of template:Size) update, and / or backup file (within template:Wiki) update, please use the full standardised and international ISO 8601 extended date format as shown (YYYY-MM-DD).
If / when editing an existing Wikia article to update to the new Fandom URL schema, do not change the wikiFactor URL within template:Size. The 'Special:PopularPages' was globally disabled on Wikia many years before the rebrand to Fandom, and its newer Fandom URL schema; so please leave the former WIKINAME.Wikia.com/wiki/Special:PopularPages URL, so that any archived URL might be found and added to the Wikia site article page.

Select and highlight the text above in the blue/grey 'boilerplate', copy the highlighted text (Ctrl-c, or ⌘-c on your keyboard), and then paste (Ctrl-c or ⌘-v) it at the top of the edit box of the relevant Wikia/Fandom site article, then amend the fields to the right of the =
sign with the requested information on the specific Wikia/Fandom site. Don't forget to click on the 'Show preview' button (alt-p (PC) or shift-esc-p (Mac) on your keyboard) to verify your edited detail is correct before saving (alt-s [PC] or shift-esc-s [Mac]).
