Template:Wikia boilerplate

Revision as of 22:50, 18 September 2018 by Hoof Hearted (talk | contribs) (self help - <!--see Template:Wikia boilerplate for full detail-->)

This template:Wikia boilerplate is a boilerplate template. It is to be used only for Wikia wikis. Replace WIKINAME in the URL with the specific Wikia sub-domain name. For example, StarWars.Wikia.com or de.StarWars.Wikia.com or es.StarWars.Wikia.com, etc. When completed and saved, this specific boilerplate calls on our default template:Wiki to generate the standard infobox as used on all wiki articles.

When adding or amending a date for the statistics (number of pages) update and / or backup file update, please use full ISO 8601 date format as shown (YYYY-MM-DD). If the URL placeholders for the backup files in the 'Database dumps' section of the /Special:Statistics page do NOT display a date, i.e. 'Unknown'; that means that no backup has been created. You may still copy and paste any live URL (for when Wikia eventually decide to actually create said backup), but please add it to the backupurl field within the 'commented-out' formatted coding: <!-- -->.

{{Wikia-stub}} <!-- 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 tagable 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.  Please also add the year of founding, 
like so... -->
