Indenting a paragraph

To indent one line of text, simply place the tag "<para/>" at the beginning of the line

Citations, footnotes, references

To add footnotes to a page[1], automatically incrementing, insert the following code, then add an empty <references/> tag where you want the footnotes to appear

this line of text has a footnote<ref>text appearing in footnote below</ref>

<references/>

Relative Linking

Instead of using the standard [[pagename|display]] format which will always link pages from the "/" root, use:

{{rl|pagename|display}}

This will allow linking to sub-pages without having to link the entire url from the root web

eg: /Resources/People/Ingame could be referenced as {{rl|Ingame}} from the /Resources/People page.
eg: /Resources/People/OOgame could be referenced as {{rl|../OOgame|OOgame}} from the /Resources/Ingame page

Spoiler tag

To hide what could be considered spoiler information within text, place it between
spoiler tags
<spoiler>test</spoiler>

Embedded sections

To include subpages within the content, you can use the code:

{{section|content=(namespace:pagename) or (text)|header=(text)|color=(name)}}

or on multiple lines

{{section|
|content=(namespace:pagename) or (text)
|header=(text)
|color=(name)
}}

Example:

Additional information
  • 'namespace' can be ignored for main pages, but the colon must remain - that is, the 'Puzzles' page should be referenced as content=:Puzzles, whereas a user would be referenced as content=User:Thebruce
  • both 'header' and 'color' are optional. Leaving 'header' blank removes the header line entirely. Leaving 'color' blank renders the box in gray
  • The box is rendered to 100% of the width of the containing object (thus, to place some side by side, either enclose the template in a floated or sized div, or within table cells, for example.


  1. the footnote, of course, will be displayed in the footer
