D&D Wikia uses a lot of templates. The page will help to

Templates for images

{{bookthumbnail}} One parameter: the original URL of the image.	Template:Bookthumbnail
{{GFDL}} No parameters.	Template:GFDL

{{tl}} One parameters: the name of a template.	{{[[Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]}}

Disambiguation templates

{{disambig}}, {{otheruses}}, {{distinguish}}

Stub templates

Main article: Dnd:Stub

{{stub}} No parameters.
{{enwikistub}} No parameters.	Template:Enwikistub

SRD templates

All SRD material is put into templates to ensure it will not be changed. For example, the dagger article contains {{SRD-dagger}} template. While it is possible (and seems quite reasonable) for the article to be changed and expanded to include more information about different daggers, links to other related articles, etc, the SRD text will stay the same.

All SRD templates have the name which starts with "SRD" and a dash ({{SRD-quarterstaff}}, {{SRD-elves}}, {{SRD-AC}}, etc). They are all protected and cannot be edited by regular users. SRD templates are made with the {{SRDtext}} template. If you want to create a page with OGC, you can use the {{ogc}} template:

{{ogc}} No parameters.

Template:Ogc

Templates for users

{{welcome}} No parameters.
