In USApedia, it refers to a function of the [[MediaWiki]] software that allows the content of one page to be included in the content of another page, by placing a reference to the source page in the wikitext of the target page. A page that is intended to be transcluded into other pages is called a [[Help:Template|template]]. Changes made to a template are automatically reflected on all pages into which that template has been transcluded. | ||
