This is a list of Templates available on ModEnc. It will be updated everytime a new one is added. Usage of these templates is simple: Just put {{templatename}} somewhere in a page's text, and it gets replaced by the template. In some cases, you have to give a parameter.

If you have ideas for more templates, feel free to suggest them on the talk-page or code them yourself. But don't forget to update this list.

Creating your own Templates

You are free to add your own templates, under three conditions:

  1. The templates serves an actual valuable purpose
  2. You add it to the list above
  3. It fits the general style of the rest

To achieve point three, please consult ModEnc:Tables, ModEnc:Styleguide, and make use of pre-existing templates, e.g. the ones from the Bars and Boxes section.

In addition to the rules above, this should be included on template-pages:

<includeonly>[[Category:CategoryName]]</includeonly>
<noinclude>Usage:
<pre></pre>
Copy-paste the code above and use as instructed.<br>
Template includes Category:CategoryName automatically.
</noinclude>

Use the <includeonly> block to include a category to which all pages including this template will be added, and the <noinclude> part to give a tutorial on how to use this template. Use the <pre> part to post a blank, copy-paste ready version of the template.

Look at already existing template-pages for examples.
