i REALLY hope this was clear

New page

===templates===

@[[User:Plankton|Plankton]] here are some source editor only tags for templates.

*<nowiki><noinclude> - makes the text that you write following it not appear on the actual template. Good for documentation. To stop the tag from reading any more text, put </noinclude>. Example: <noinclude>You use this template to say hi to someone.</noinclude>Hi!</nowiki>

*<nowiki><includeonly> - makes text that you write only appear in the template but not when you search it up. To stop the tag from reading any more text and making it only appear in the template, put </includeonly>. Example: <includeonly>Template text</includeonly></nowiki>

*<nowiki>Parameters - these are the things that you type in when you want something to come up, like the reason one in citation needed which adds a reason to the citation needed. To add one, simply type {{{parametername}}} and replace parametername with the name of your parameter. If you want to have parameters without the parameter name actually being needed to be typed, then simply make the parameter name 1, which will look like {{{1}}}.</nowiki> Example: "citation needed {{{reason}}}"<noinclude> The reason parameter in this case is put next to the citation needed part, so to summon it in source editor, if you put {{citation needed|reason=idk you figure out yourself}} then "citation needeed idk you figure out yourself" will come up.</nowiki>
