'''This article is about templates in [[MediaWiki]] [[Wiki]] software and their application to reaching [[consumerium]] [[Consumerium Services|goals]].'''
Templates basically offer the possibility to include the articles from [[Template:]]-[[namespace]] into other articles by the means of '''[[w:transclusion]]'''. '''[[mw:Help:Templates]]''' is an excellent tutorial into MW templates.
 
Templates will be widely employed to add [[categories]] to articles.
 
The template system in [[MediaWiki]] has evolved to a very powerful (and complicated in some cases) system for avoiding redundant manual work, and enabling consistent structure for articles that deal with a certain, shared area of knowledge. Other features in MediaWiki include [[MediaWiki/extensions|extensions]], [[categories]] and extra [[namespaces]] and [[MediaWiki/widgets|widgets]].
 
[[Wikidata]] and [[DBpedia]] will be used to populate and update Consumium's own [[Wikibase]] installation.

== Template use in Implementation wiki ==
Here we should compile a list of templates that will be useful in the implementation stage when we begin to assemble information about companies and products.

Infoboxen can consist of standard items in the form of a large unified template with fields for value '''and''' freeform portion with mostly single item templates ( think of [[userboxen]] ).

[[w:Category:Business infobox templates]] will likely almost all be included under GFDL to form the base data on entitites such as brands and businesses.
Using the SPARQL queries on [[DBpedia]]'s datasets on [[Wikipedia]] infoboxes enabled by the [[MediaWiki/Extensions#LinkedWiki|LinkedWiki extension]] so we will start collecting a list of Infoboxes to get datasets for.

==Template use in Wikipedia==
The template system in [[MediaWiki]] has evolved to a very powerful (and complicated in some cases) system for avoiding redundant manual work, and enabling consistent structure for articles that deal with a certain, shared area of knowledge.


[All templates used in Wikipedia can be found http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=10 here] (an automatically generated alphabetically ordered list)
[[w:Wikipedia:Template_messages]] lists (most) of the templates used in Wikipedia in a user friendly way.
