Two Point Hospital Wiki:Templates

There are many templates in use in ; these are only a subset, representing some of the most important and commonly used ones. If you feel that a template belongs on this page, do not hesitate to add it.
 * Category:Templates should cover all templates in the wiki.
 * The Template namespace (found from Special:AllPages) always has all templates in the wiki, sorted alphanumerically.

What are Templates?
Wiki templates provide a means to insert the same content over and over in different (or the same) pages. This saves editors the hassle of duplicating the same text again and again, and also helps ensure consistency.

Templates are generally shown with the format required to use the template (e.g. ). Clicking the template name takes you to the template's page, where you can see what it looks like and how it is used.

Detailed instructions on the usage of each template should exist on:
 * 1) a subpage using documentation; or
 * 2) the template page itself (inside "noinclude" tags); or
 * 3) the template's talk page.

For more information on templates, see Help:Templates.

Article Management Templates
All article management templates are to be added to the bottom of articles with the exception of the Construction template, which is always added to the top of an article.

Nominate Article for Deletion
Type a reason
 * Add this to an article to nominate it for deletion. It will add the article to Category:Marked for Deletion.

Disambiguation Articles
disambig
 * If you have several articles that have similar or identical names, you may wish to create a "disambiguation" page at the main article name, with the articles taking an extra phrase in brackets afterwards. For example:
 * Reception <-- disambiguation page, with links to:
 * Reception (Item)
 * Reception (Room)


 * Using disambig marks an article as a disambiguation page by adding a banner to the article and categorising it under Category:Disambiguations. Add links to the various articles under the banner.
 * For more information, see Help:Disambiguation.

Mark Article for Rollback
Type a reason
 * If an article is in need of a rollback due to vandalism or other reasons, add this template. It will add the article to Category:Marked for Rollback.

Merging Articles
Name Page to Merge With
 * If an article is a stub or the information is part of a larger topic it may benefit by merging its contents to an existing page. This template will add the article to Category:Articles for Merging.

Split
Type a reason
 * If you think a large article would benefit being split use this template. It can also be used when information about two unrelated topics, that have a similar name, have been added to the same article. This template will add the article to Category:Articles for Splitting.

Move
Page Name
 * Although anyone can move an article, we recommend nominating the move an article instead. Allowing time for consensus from the Administrators.  The importance of this means a move is more likely to remain rather than be considered vandalism.  This template will add the article to Category:Articles for Moving.

Stub Pages
Stub
 * When an article has little or no useful information, then it is likely a stub and needs expanding. Generally this standard stub template is to be used.  Although, on rare occasions, administrators might use the more urgent stub templates Stub-Important or Stub-Urgent.


 * If you are planning to expanding stub articles, we recommend you check the more urgent categories first Important Stubs, Urgent Stubs. If these are empty, then all stub articles outstanding will be listed here Stubs.

Cleanup
Cleanup
 * If a page needs a good cleanup, use this template. This template will add the article to Category:Articles for Cleanup.

Construction
Construction
 * If you are actively working on an article and will be for an extended period of time, add this template to the top of the article and save before heavily working on your article additions. This will discourage others from editing the same article during this time and help prevent lost work or starting edit warring.  This must be removed the moment you are done.  This includes overnight or other prolonged periods away.  This template will add the article to Category:Articles under Construction.

T is for template
template
 * This template allows you to show example template code (with a link to the templates) without using the template itself. It is used extensively on this page.
