MY EYES! Some of the CSS needs repairing. That'll be done soon. I promise.

Screamer Wiki was down for who honestly knows the reason why. Maybe it was a DoS attack? Maybe it was our old VPS throttling us? Who knows. We have moved servers and are now on the latest LTS version of MediaWiki.

Description
This template is used to insert descriptions on template pages.
Syntax
Type <noinclude>{{documentation}}</noinclude> at the end of the template page.

General usage

On the Template page

Template code<includeonly>Any categories to be inserted into articles by the template</includeonly><noinclude>
{{documentation}}</noinclude>

Note that, depending on the template, you may need to add a clear or complete a table/div just before {{documentation}} is inserted (within the noinclude tags).

The line break is also useful as it helps prevent the documentation template "running into" previous code.

On the Template/doc page

;Description
:This template is used to do something.
;Syntax
:Type <code>{{t|templatename}}</code> somewhere.
;Sample output
:<code><nowiki>{{templatename|foo}}</nowiki></code> gives...
:{{templatename|foo}}

<noinclude>[[Category:Template documentation|{{PAGENAME}}]]</noinclude>

Use any or all of the above description/syntax/sample output sections. You may also want to add "see also" or further usage information sections.

Note that the above example also uses the Template:T and Template:T/piece templates.
