Grigoripedia:Templates
Templates are reusable pieces of wiki markup language used to format pages, display important notices, create navigation links, and automatically organize articles for maintenance purposes.
Templates are stored in the Template: namespace, and they can be added to pages by placing the template name inside double braces. For example:
{{Stub}}
Templates keep Grigoripedia consistent and professional by allowing the same message, layout, or formatting style to be reused on any page. They also make page creation and upkeep much easier.
Box templates
Notice templates display important notices on an article. They should usually not be removed.
Article notices may be content warnings or other notices.
Content warning templates include:
{{Mature content}}— a warning that an article or section contains mature content with significant sexual themes.{{Sensitive content}}— a warning that an article or section contains content that is sensitive or potentially disturbing to some people.{{Other content warning}}— a customizable content warning about an article or section.
General notice templates include:
{{External scholarship}}— a notice that an article or section is primarily about a topic external to Satano-Grigorism.{{Specialized terminology}}— a notice that an article heavily contains specialized Satano-Grigorist terminology.

Creating templates
To create a new template, make a new page in the Template: namespace. For example:

{{Example}}
Template notes or documentation should usually be placed inside <noinclude> tags so that the documentation appears only on the template page itself. If this is omitted, it will appear everywhere the template is used.
Categories that should apply to all pages using the template should usually be placed inside <includeonly> tags.
Template documentation
Basic template documentation should at least explain what the template does, where and how it should be used, what category or categories it adds, any parameters it accepts, and what kind of template it is.
