There are many templates in use in Among Us Wiki; 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, please contact the admins and they can 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. {{Delete}}). 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:
- a subpage using {{Documentation}}; or
- the template page itself (inside "noinclude" tags); or
- the template's talk page.
Please add the templates category to the end of a template using this code:
<noinclude>[[Category:Templates]]</noinclude>
This will list in in Templates so others can find it easily.
For more information on templates, see w:Help:Templates.
Article management templates
Nominate an article for deletion
{{Delete|<reason>|<user = user>}}
- Add this to an article to nominate it for deletion. It will add the article to Category:Candidates for deletion.
Disambiguation articles
{{Disambig|<phrase>|<refers to>}}
- 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:
- The Prince <-- disambiguation page, with links to:
- The Prince (frog)
- The Prince (human)
- Using {{Disambig}} marks an article as a disambiguation page by adding a banner to the article and categorizing it under Category:Disambiguations. Add links to the various articles under the banner.
- For more information, see w:Help:Disambiguation.
Stub articles
{{Stub}}
- These articles are very short, or don't have all the information they need.
- Using {{Stub}} marks the article with a banner and adds it to Category:Stubs.
Cleanup pages
{{Cleanup}}
- These pages need to be cleaned up.
- Like they need to be reorganized, they have a lot of grammar errors or do not follow the Wiki's Manual of Style.
- Using {{Cleanup}} marks the article with a banner and adds it to Category:Pages requiring cleanup.
