Project talk:Main page templates

Template structure
Yo yo yo! "The main page is made up of a main template that holds the layout of the page, plus a set of smaller templates that hold the content", yet there is no list of which is which. Which templates are layout and which are content? I want to see the layout template to implement something similar on my site. --Dmb 12:16, 9 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Please don't yo yo yo! It reads like clicking your fingers at a waiter! :-)
 * The main template is at Template:Main page.

Help Please
Hi, I am trying to use Language template on my wiki(verion 1.12), but when I am creating Project:Main page templates/page by copying the code provided here it considers the tags   &    as simple text. I have already installed ParserFunctions extension to use Language template, do i need to install something else too. Can some one help me, Thanks.

Sorry about the edit..
I thought I was editing my own wiki  =)  You fixed it almost as fast as I realized my mistake. 204.180.114.254 11:59, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Problem with Main Page
Uh... Sorry, I just nothing understand. I got a problem I find nowhere to resolve it. My Main Page is (in french)"La base de données n’a pas trouvé le texte d’une page qu’elle aurait dû trouver, intitulée « Accueil » etc. etc." (it means The database didn't find the text of a page it should have found, named "Main Page" etc etc etc). you can see it on

I guess this page doesn't exist in my database. Is that normal ? (for exemple i know when i uploaded wikimedia on my host some files were not uploaded) Do I must create it myself ?

I asked myself whether this "main page templates" had pour object to create this main page. Is that true ? I really understand nothing here.

Well. I just want a normal Main Page. Someone would have a solution please ? Thanks ! Artomome 21:42, 4 april 2009 (UTC)
