Minecraft Wiki:Templates/Basic Template List

Templates are a very good addition to the wiki. MessageBox templates are the easiest and most common template. All wiki users should know how they work, or atleast where and when you use them. But since Templates are user created, they are often hard to find. The Template Category does not list all of them (although almost all). This page is a list of often used Templates

Custom Messages

You might not always know/can use these. Therefore here is a basic manual on making a custom message.

{{msgbox}}

use: | title = Text here, to create a title, which is bolded
use: | text = Text here, to create a text below the title
Use: | discuss = 1, to show 'discuss' in the upper right corner. Which links to the talk page of the page it is on. Works only if you have set a title.

you should have atleast a title or a text, and you can have only one of both of them. Use <br /> to create a new line.

Example:
{{msgbox
| title = Hello
| text = This is an example
}}

Hello

This is an example

Example:
{{msgbox
| title = Is this a good page?
| discuss = 1
}}

Is this a good page? ^[discuss^]

Documentation

You can always search for the documentation of the template for help! Some templates do not have documentation.
