ModEnc:Templates
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:
- The templates serves an actual valuable purpose
- You add it to the list above
- 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.
