To add in an example of what your template will look like when called, create a sub-page from the template. See Template:Questbox/code as reference. Add in an example of your code by creating a sub-page from the template. Then include it, like below.

Use this space to describe what your template does, and an example of where it could be used.

{{questbox
 | name = C'Thun's Legacy
 | faction = Alliance
 | level = 60
 | levelreq = 59
 | type = Elite
 | category = Hellfire Peninsula
 | start = [[Eye of C'Thun]]
 | end = [[Caelestrasz]]
 | reputation = [[Wildhammer]] +100-500
 | experience = 40-500
 | rewards = {{loot|common|Stoneskin Totem}} or {{loot|common|Earth Totem}}
 | money = {{Cost|123|45|67}}
 | repeatable = Yes
 | previous = {{quest|Your Place In The World}}
 | next = {{quest|Scarab Shells}}
 | id = 788
}}

Now add in what each argument of the template does, and make sure you head it as appropriate.

A template is a special type of page that has been designed so its content can be included in one or more other pages. Since a given template can be included in many pages, templates can help reduce duplication and promote a uniform style between pages.

Templates are usually located in the Template namespace, which means any page name beginning with Template:, such as Template:Name.

Referencing templatesEdit

The content of a template can be added to a page by referencing it using the wiki markup: {{templatename}}. This references the template and includes its output at the point of insertion. Articles will be updated automatically when referenced templates are changed. A page that references templates cannot be edited to change the content of a referenced template, although a list of referenced templates will be displayed at the bottom of the page for convenience while editing it.

Substituting templatesEdit

A different way to use a template is to substitute its content into a page. This is done by inserting subst: immediately after the opening braces: {{subst:templatename}}. Once the page is saved, the link to the template is removed and the template output is substituted in its place and can be further edited. Any updates to the template will not affect the content that was substituted into the page.

Benefits of templatesEdit

Templates are used to add recurring messages to pages in a consistent way, to add boilerplate messages, to create infoboxes and navigational boxes, and to provide cross-language portability of texts.

Templates can also make it much easier for new and casual editors to use advanced designs, features and extensions by hiding confusing code.

Creating an advanced templateEdit

To learn how to change the output of the template based on what the user inputs, see Help:Template parameters and Help:Parser functions.

Updating and adding standard templatesEdit

Wikia's Starter Pages and Templates wikis occasionally improve some of their documentation as well as adding new templates specifically designed for Wikia sites, and are therefore worth checking from time to time. For sites created before about December 2008, the Starter Pages wiki should be compared and ideally used for upgrading to its standard documentation system similar to that introduced in Wikipedia.
