This is a generic boilerplate template, suitable for most wiki engines, including MediaWiki. For Wikia-specific wikis, see: Template:Wikia Boilerplate.

{{Wiki
|name              = <!--if left blank, will assume name of article-->
|logo              = [[Image:NoLogo.png]]
|wide logo         = <!--insert 'y' ONLY when the logo is too wide AND/OR the title is too long-->
|URL               = YourWikiHttp <!--start with http:// - eg: http://YourWikiURL.org-->
|recentchanges URL = No <!--http://YourWikiURL.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges-->
|wikinode URL      = No <!--http://YourWikiURL.org/wiki/WikiNode--><!--If none, use 'No'-->
|status            = YourWikiStatus <!--'Active' is appropriate for most sites, see Category:Wiki Status for more info-->
|language          = YourWikiLanguage <!--eg: English, Multilingual, Japanese etc-->
|editmode          = YourWikiEditMode <!--'OpenEdit' if users can edit without logging in, LoginToEdit if not, see Category:Wiki Edit Mode-->
|engine            = YourWikiEngine <!--the software which the wiki runs on, eg: MediaWiki, see Category:Wiki Engine-->
|license           = YourWiki'sLicense <!--preferred, see Category:Wiki License, if NO license, 'NoLicense'-->
|maintopic         = YourWikiTopic <!--the main, primary topic. Other sub-topics can be added as tags within the prose below-->
|backupurl         = <!--backup file URL, found at '/Special:Statistics' on Wikia sites-->
|backupdate        = 20YY-MM-DD <!--the date of the above URL-->
}}
{{Size
|pages = <!--Necessary. Type the plain number of pages - NO thousands separators.-->
|statistics URL = <!--Preferred, source of page count (often a 'Statistics' page). If unknown leave void.-->
|wikiFactor = <!--Preferred. If unknown leave void. See: Category:wikiFactor.-->
|wikiFactor URL = <!--Preferred, source of wikiFactor (often 'PopularPages' or 'MostVisitedPages'). If unknown leave void.-->
}}(As of: DD Month 20YY)<!--manually add or amend date when stats are verified and/or updated-->

==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 link 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-->
