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!...

Icons

Use of the following icons is optional.

• - [[Image:Icon_star.gif|Featured]] - To highlight a certain link on a page that is worthwhile to the reader. Use sparingly to avoid dillution.
• - [[Image:Icon_pdf.gif|PDF]]

References

Many publications in a wide range of fields use numbers — in square brackets and/or superscripted — to refer to a list of citations at the end of the article, e.g. ^[1] or [1] with:

1. ^  Smith, etc.
