Templates
Templates exist Under "Templates:Foo". They are invoked in articles using the following syntax: {{foo}} which then displays the content of the template in the article at the position of the tag. Editors should document any templates they create below:
- Template:ProgrammingLanguages - {{ProgrammingLanguages}} - For use in articles describing a programming language.
- Template:Stub - {{stub}} - For use in incomplete articles for which I am accepting outside content contributions.
- Template:FairUse - {{FairUse}} - For use where fair use rights are invoked.
Code Snippets
Quoting
If you include excerpts from or the entire contents of documents, please place them within a div. If there are quotes within the document, please also place them within a div.
The following is an example of how this is done:
<div style="padding: 1em; margin: 10px; border: 2px dotted green;"> <small><font color=blue>1</font></small> Hello world!... </div>
This would result in a border like this:
1 Hello world!...
