What is wikicode?
It's a special kind of coding that works only on Wikia.

How do I make a template?
It's simple, really. You crate a page called User:USERNAME/TemplateName and type the template in there. It requiers some wikicode, so to learn in full just go here.

Okay, how do I use a template?
You do this: type in the page name in these special brackets: –  and the contents of the page will appear. For paramaters, you have to do a similar thing, but you should go here to learn.

Aak! i put a template in a page and now I go back and it's just a little green puzzle peice! What do I do?
That's the Template symbol. Hover the mouse over it, and a window will pop up with a preveiw of what it will look like. It might say "Please switch to source mode to edit!" or there might be an "Edit" button.

Wait...I don't know the coding for a template, but I want to use it! What do I do?
In the little bar over the editing space, there is a "Insert" section. Among these is "Template". Click it, a list will pop up, and hit "Other template/Magic word". Then it lets you browse templates. (The names are kinda weird, though...)

How do I edit?
There is a botton next to the name of the page that says "Edit this page". Look on the right side of the title of a section to edit just that section.

What is the "Source" button for?
It's for seeing the coding of an article. Templates have coding, and when you select a heading, for example, Heading 2 would have two =s with a heading after, then another two =s. Heading 3 has three =s, 4 has four, etc. Bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough all have coding too.
