This is a generic boilerplate template, suitable for all wiki article entries; applicable for most wiki engines, including MediaWiki. For Wikia-specific wikis, see: template:Wikia boilerplate (currently only available in English).

When adding or amending a date for the backup file, or page count and wikiFactor, please use full Template:W as shown (YYYY-MM-DD).

{{Wiki <!--see 'Template:Wiki' for full detail-->

;''Description
<!-- remove this comment (between <!-- and -->) after:
type description of your wiki here, and 'tag' specific notable words to include them into categories as follows {{tag|notable subject}}
(This tag construction is used when you want a word in the text to wikilink to the category of that same name.)

If a taggable category name does not appear in the prose text, use and amend the '[[Category:FirstAdditional]]' etc at the BOTTOM of
the page to manually add categories.  It would also be helpful to add the year of founding, like so... -->
[[Category:FirstAdditional]]
[[Category:SecondAdditional]]
[[Category:FoundedIn20xx]]<!--https://YourWikiURL.org/index.php?title=Special:AncientPages or https://YourWikiURL.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&dir=prev&action=history-->
