cvillepedia has a few templates that are useful for formatting text and building infoboxes in this wiki. Other templates are used behind the scenes to organize the wiki and many are borrowed from Wikipedia. In this article, you will see code and examples for some of the popular templates.

Some templates have documentation.

Special text formatting

  • {{highlight|text}} template does what you would expect
  • {{tlp|template name}} lets you name and link a template with causing a mess
  • {{fact}} indicates a citation is needed and displays [citation needed]
  • {{age}} allows insertion of a date that will be updated dynamically
