mahuti:
the short verision... to use one type {{Template:templatename}} It will put an include of the stuff from the templated page onto your page, but you can't edit the template stuff.

To USE the templated stuff, rather than embed an include version of it use {{subst:templatename}}

To CREATE a template pic any random page and type [[Template:templatename]] save page click on link to go to the template (and then edit it).

Probably should have a sandbox somewhere to do junk like that.

SirPoonga:
Is there a list of templates?

mahuti:
I don't know where a list is...
but I know of

Template:Cleanup
Template:Delete
Template:Mamewah161

{{Cleanup}} for instance.

sirwoogie:
You can search for any type of namespace page (e.g. Template) at http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/Special:Allpages

Templates specifically are here.

JoyMonkey:
I've a question about the Delete template (you might have noticed that I've been consolidating pages and deleting obsoletes).
How do I enter the 'Reason Given' ?

I tried putting a reason inside {{{these brackets}}} , but it didn't seem to work (the page still read Reason Given: {{{1}}}).
