Template creation
Moegirlpedia has a large number of templates, the existing templates can fit most of the needs. When an existing template is not suitable, you can create a new template.
It is not recommended to copy a template directly from another wiki, because other templates, JS, CSS, or specific plugins that the template depends on, may make it impossible to use them directly.
Syntax
See MediaWiki's official description.
Style guidelines
Template width should use percentages (80%, etc.). If a fixed width is used, the template should be less than 260px wide, the image inside the template should be less than 250px (the mobile version shows an error if it is larger than this size). Icons should be smaller than 100px.
In general, the horizontal bar type uses a percentage to determine the width. Information templates on top of pages use pixels (px) to determine the width.
Documentation
To make the template easier to use, documentation is often required when writing functional templates. There are two ways to embed documentation, one is through inlining <noinclude>Template documentation</noinclude>to the template directly, the other is adding {{Documentation}}.
