User:Waahlis/On templates

Hello everyone! On this page, I'll list the appropriate categorisation and nomenclature of templates, thus hoping to establish a easy, logical and transparent system.

Categorisation

General

• Countable template categories shall be in plural. Abstraction categories, e.g. Functionality, Aesthetics use their basic form.
• All templates shall have the category [[Category:Templates]].

Specific

• When creating templates, known as page headers, or simply headers, use [[Category:Headers]].

• Please remember that the Template:Bluepagehead is redundant, instead use Template:Header.

• Templates related to archiving, receive the [[Category:Archiving]].
• Templates related to the Linguifex:Featured language receive the [[Category:Featured]]
• Templates imported from Wikipedia receive the [[Category:Wikipedia]].
• Templates needing special attention, stubs, poorly written articles et cetera, get [[Category:Improvement]]

Nomenclature

Templates

• Variations of a template, or subpages, should be named [[Template:Template name/Subpage name]].
