This is the boilerplate for template: Wiki Engine. Use this template for generating an infobox in the 'mother' or 'parent' article or category for a specific wiki engine; such as WikiWikiWeb, UseMod Wiki, ProWiki, MediaWiki, MoinMoin, XWiki, Wikidot, etc. The additional {{WikiEngineFeatures}} template will auto-generate an external link to a specific page about the wiki engine on the WikiMatrix wiki comparison wiki site; and this will provide additional detailed information. All infobox external URLs must start with http:// or https://, whereas prose links in the description can also use any existing interwiki link for external sites, along with conventional 'internal' wikilinks.
Select and highlight the text above in the blue/grey 'boilerplate', select 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 wiki engine article or category, then amend the fields to the right of the =
sign with the requested information on the specific wiki engine. 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]).
