=== Wiki templates ===
[[Help:template|Wiki template]]s are powerful tools for editing Wikipedia articles.
<br/>A "wiki template" is a kind of [[Web_template#Sub-template|sub-template]]. The "Wikipedia Edit Language" uses the notation <code><nowiki>{{template-name}}</nowiki></code> for the [[Web_template#Simple_substitution_templates|sub-template reference]]. The ''template definition'' (templare source code) is on <code><nowiki>[[Template:template-name]]</nowiki></code>.


Finding templates:
{{TOC right}}
* [[Wikipedia:Template messages]] - For "listing by category" the existing templates which you may find useful.
* [[Wikipedia:Navigational templates]] and [[Category:Navigational_templates]] - For "listing by category" the existing "navigational templates". 
* [[Special:ExpandTemplates]] - Takes some text and expands all templates in it recursively.
* [[Special:Unusedtemplates]] - Lists all pages in the template namespace which are not included in another page.
* Use <code><nowiki>[[Template:template-name]]</nowiki></code> on edit to produce a link to the template declaration.


Help to use template:
==Tools==
* [[m:Help:Substitution]] - more detailed information on subst template (on the Meta-Wiki).
* [[Die (manufacturing)]], used to cut or shape material
* [[Help:template]] - wiki template help page.
* Mold, in a [[molding (process)|molding process]]
* [[Help:Editing#Templates]] - another help page.
* [[Stencil]], a pattern or overlay used in graphic arts (drawing, painting, etc.) and sewing to replicate letters, shapes or designs


Explanations and types of wiki-templates:
==Computing==
* [[Wikipedia:Citation templates]]  
* The main document from which [[mail merge]] documents are created
* [[Template:Subst]] - a template that reminds users to subst.
* [[Style sheet (web development)]] or master page, a sheet or page on which a user can globally edit and format graphic elements and text common to each page of a document
* [[Template (C++)]], a tool for generic programming in the C++ language
* [[Template (file format)]], a standardized, non-executable file type used by computer software as a pre-formatted example on which to base other files, especially documents
* [[Template (word processing)]], a standard document containing layout and styles used to configure electronic word processing documents
* [[Template metaprogramming]], a programming technique used by a compiler to generate temporary source code
* [[Template method pattern]], an object-oriented programming design pattern
* [[Template processor]], a system that combines a template with data to produce an output
* [[Web template]], a master page or a page element that can be used to produce web pages dynamically
