A template is a Wikipedia page created to be included in other pages. It usually contains repetitive material that may need to show up on multiple articles or pages, often with customizable input. Templates sometimes use MediaWiki parser functions, nicknamed "magic words", a simple scripting language. Template pages are found in the template ...
May be used in-line to create a reference, such as {{ color | colorcode }}, to a template within the body of a paragraph. The inclusion of parameters is entirely optional, dependent upon whether their listing is desired; the template alone may be referenced as in {{ color }} by simply excluding the parameters from the call to {{ LinkTemplate }}.
Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see the main table for all alternate options. If a row renders identically to a previous row, it means the current template does not support that option and {{ tlg }} needs to be used instead.

This template is used similarly to Template:Tl to show the name of a template with the pairs of open and close braces around it. But this variant makes the inner braces part of the link, whereas Template:Tl does not make the braces part of the link. This is to allow easier clicking of very short template names.
This template should always be substituted by prefixing "subst:" inside the template code. Thus use {{subst:Linking}} rather than {{Linking}}. You can indent the template, by typing :{{subst:Linking}}. The template does not include automatic signing. Please remember to sign by typing four tildes (~~~~) after the template syntax.
