<p>Localise template catalogue and editorial guidance for the independent wiki</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Template documentation&#039;&#039;&#039; provides local editorial guidance for the independent Elite Dangerous Wiki. Apply it alongside [[Project:Community standards|community standards]] and [[Project:Policies|existing local policies]].<br /> <br /> == Explain actual behaviour ==<br /> Describe the purpose, supported parameters, defaults and expected output of a local template. Include minimal working examples, then optional fields and common errors. State any required modules, extensions or companion templates that are genuinely present here.<br /> <br /> == Keep documentation separate ==<br /> Use a documentation subpage when appropriate. Wrap material intended only for the template page in &lt;code&gt;noinclude&lt;/code&gt;; use &lt;code&gt;includeonly&lt;/code&gt; for material intended only for pages transcluding it. Check categories so documentation does not categorise unrelated articles.<br /> <br /> == Imported templates ==<br /> Replace external project instructions with accurate local guidance. A template imported for compatibility does not establish another site&#039;s policies, permissions or noticeboards. Test changes on representative pages and avoid changing widely used parameters without assessing callers. See [[Project:Template index]] and [[Project:Substitution]].<br /> <br /> [[Project:Editorial guidance|Editorial guidance directory]]</div>
