Templates
- This is a way to include text from one page within text on another page. Say the same definition for something is use in multiple pages, and you want to keep all pages current by modification of only one place, you can use a normal Wiki page as a template. Just don't put any categories on the page being used as a template.
{{:Pagename}}
So if Pagename is the definition or text you want to include in other pages, use the syntax above. For an example in this wiki see GoogleUpdate which is used in Processes in the Windows Task Manager.
