Should the fact that any page can be used as a template be mentioned, or should it remain undocumented magic? -- Duesentrieb 16:35, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I did see that mentioned someplace just a second ago. Martin | talk • contribs 22:13, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Confused
Ok I cant seem to work out how this thing works at all, I try and copy and paste the code here and it dont work. what am i doing wrong?

Thats what I put for a test template and all i get is the title come up Object

Any ideas

Re:Confused
Templates works only as transformation. In your wiki you have to create Template:Object page if you want to use template named Object, try something more simple as first template.

I think this help is well understandable. Maybe another example will be good for you.

In your wiki edit page www.yourdomain.com/wiki/Template:first Write there something like: Your first argument: Your second argument:

save the page (stop editing)

somewhere in your wiki edit some another page and insert here code: It was not working without 1= and 2= for me in wiki 1.9.3 (bug)

when you try preview now, you will see: Your first argument:text1 Your second argument:text2

I hope it's clear now, from template page will be replaced with everything what is after 1=
