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 typeWhat 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).
