Hey there,
I’m a bit lost when it comes to importing additional templates (usually infoboxes) from wikipedia to the ogf wiki. I’ve copied the code for the official post template, as well as the respective /doc template, but don’t really know what to do to get the items in {{{ }}} show up as they should. Do I miss “sub-templates” from the original wiki, or is it a completely different issue? And is this idea even practical? Thanks in advance :)

Hey Leowezy
Just copying a template from wikipedia won’t work. There will be transclusions in the template - these refer on to other templates. If the templates don’t exist you’ll just end up with lots of {{{ - as you’ll have seen.
If you don’t make templates for the transcluded references, you just have to manually replace them with the text you want or remove them from the template.

Thank you Udi, I think I got what was wrong and fixed it in a way that the template should fulfill its basic functions now.
