The intention of this page is to document each template at this wiki. This page only describes what each template does; for tips on styling an article, try Wikihack:Style guide.
The box at the top-right of this page is Template:Community.
Contents
Page deletion
| What appears | What you type |
|---|---|
A user has suggested the deletion of this page. The reason given was: "insert reason" |
{{delete|insert reason}} |
The {{delete}} template adds a page to Category:Candidates for deletion so that administrators can consider deleting it.
Page merging
| What appears | What you type |
|---|---|
A user has suggested this page be merged with "insert reason" |
{{merge|insert reason}} |
The {{merge}} template adds a notice that the page should be merged with another, or several others. It also adds the page to Category:Pages to be merged.
If you see a merge notice, try merging the pages!
Article stubs
| What appears | What you type |
|---|---|
|
{{stub}} |
A user has suggested improving this page or section as follows: "Is this artifact better than Frost Brand?" |
{{stub|Is this artifact better than [[Frost Brand]]?}} |
The {{stub}} template appeals for someone to click the "edit" link and add more information to an article. It also lists the article in Category:Stubs.
Function templates
The function templates of Category:Function templates allow you to show monsters or objects in any of the 16 colors that NetHack uses. Witness, for example:
| newt | lichen | unlit corridor | pool of lava | grave |
| : | F | #### | } | | |
| {{yellow|:}} | {{brightgreen|F}} | {{white|#}}{{white|#}}{{white|#}}{{white|#}} | {{red|}}} | {{lightgray||}} |
See Category:Function templates for details.
Item monster
We are working on it, but we might create templates for information boxes to be put on each item and monster page; see Wikihack:Style guide#Item pages and Template:Monster respectively.

The NetHack General Public License applies to screenshots, source code and other content from NetHack. This content was modified from the original NetHack source code distribution (by splitting up NetHack content between wiki pages, and possibly further editing).

{{NGPL}} at articles and images | ||

{{GFDL}} at images | ||
This work is copyrighted. The individual who uploaded this work and first used it in an article, as well as subsequent persons who place it into articles, asserts that this qualifies as fair use of the material under United States copyright law. |
{{fairuse}} at images |
Origin:
- Wikibooks:Template:fairuse -> {{fairuse}}
- {{fairuse}} -> other templates
These tags indicate some copyright external to the copyright of this wiki. There are two reasons to do this:
- It is proposed that all images have tags showing their copyright status. This is similar to what Wikimedia Commons does.
- Articles derived from Rodney use the {{rodney}} tag, while articles annotating NetHack source code use the {{NGPL}} tag (for the source code, not the annotations).
Some images can use {{fairuse}}, but this should always be avoided except when needed, for example for the Wikipedia logo. In most cases, fair use such as simply making a quote ("The newt bites! You die...") or giving game statistics (like when using {{monster}}) does not require a template.
