This article covers the general layout for a standard template page.
- Put the template code on the main page, and put all documentation and categories on a /doc subpage. This means that updates to the documentation do not result in huge amounts of template updates, and the template itself can be protected if necessary.
- Template page
Template code<includeonly>Any categories to be inserted into articles by the template</includeonly><noinclude>{{documentation}}</noinclude>
