This is a quick '''overview of templates'''. Full details can be found in '''[[Help:Template]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:Templates]]''' and '''[[m:Help:Advanced templates|m:Manual:Advanced templates]]'''.
 
A '''template''' is a Wikipedia page created to be included in other pages. It usually contains repetitive material that may need to show up on multiple articles or pages, often with customizable input. Templates sometimes use [[MediaWiki]] parser functions, nicknamed "[[Help:Magic words|magic words]]", a simple [[scripting language]].
