Transclusion
Reuse content by including one page inside another. Write the page's name in double curly braces:
{{Navbox}}This pulls in the Navbox template and renders its content right there. Templates live in the template namespace — you create and edit Navbox at /template/Navbox (see Namespaces).
Basics
| You type | What happens |
|---|---|
{{Infobox game}} | Includes the Infobox game template |
{{Infobox/doc}} | Subpage templates work too |
{{Navbox}} (no such template) | Renders a red create link to /template/Navbox |
Passing values
Add pipe-separated arguments to feed a template's parameters:
{{Infobox game|title=Black Desert Online|year=2015}}See Parameters for how templates receive and use these.
Safety limits
Transclusion is protected against runaway expansion — you'll get an inline error message if:
- a template ends up including itself (template loop detected),
- nesting goes too deep (recursion depth limit exceeded),
- the expanded output grows too large (include size limit exceeded).
