Wikitravel Shared:Template index

From Wikitravel Shared

The MediaWiki software used to run Wikitravel offers the capability to automatically generate sophisticated HTML using templates. Templates should be discussed before being created or modified. The list below shows most of the templates that are currently available, alongside brief explanations of how and where to use them. You may prefer a straightforward list of 'all pages in the 'Template' namespace'

[edit] Articles needing attention

Wiki Markup	Purpose	Template Display
{{vfd}}	add this to the top of an article or image that you think qualifies for deletion, and then add it to Votes for deletion	This media file has been recommended for deletion from Wikitravel Shared. If you have an opinion, please discuss on the Votes for deletion page. Files that are recommended for deletion are usually removed in about 14 days. We'd rather fix than delete images; please read the deletion policy and if you can help fix this one, please plunge forward and work on it. Please note that removing this message won't stop the file from being deleted; it will just make it harder to discuss the deletion. Reminder: please check if anything links here and the page history before deleting.
{{copyvio\|url}}	if you suspect that an image violates our copyleft, add this template to the page	This image appears to be a copyright/licence violation. It appears to have been appropriated from: {{{1}}}. Please refer to our policies and guidelines for an explanation of what images can and cannot be used on this site. If you are the creator of this image, please let us know that it's OK for us to use your work by leaving a note on the talk page.
{{merge\|destination}}	if two articles with similar content are created, you can add this template to the article that is less desirable	The information in this article should be merged into [[:Wikitravel Shared:{{{1}}}\|{{{1}}}]]. Talk.
