Revision as of 21:55, 17 April 2013 by Hoof Hearted (talk | contribs) (Changed protection level for "Template:Wiki boilerplate": High importance template (‎[edit=sysop] (indefinite) ‎[move=sysop] (indefinite)))

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

When adding or amending a backup file URL date, please use a reverse ISO 8601 date format as shown (YYYY-MM-DD).

==Description==
{{add}} <!-- 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]]<!--http://YourWikiURL.org/index.php?title=Special:AncientPages-->
