'''Templates''' are pages on the Wiki which are designed to be included in other pages. They are normally used for repetitive material (such as text and information boxes, icons, or standard messages). Using templates not only saves having to copy parts of pages to other pages, but they ensure a consistent style throughout the Wiki.

You will find these infoboxes and navigation boxes on many pages (including this one - see that black bar at the top?), as they are handy for navigating between pages on similar topics, or for showing key information about a page at a glance. If you're writing or editing a page, check to see if there is a template which you can use to better integrate your page with other similar pages. Some of the more common ones are:

* <code>{{t|~~Campus~~ Group Navbar}}</code>, <code>{{t|~~Member Services~~}}</code>, and <code>{{t|EVE University}}</code> for pages about the E-UNI and its members and services.

* <code>{{t|Community Group Navbar}}</code>, <code>{{t|EVEUniversityNav}}</code>, and <code>{{t|EVE University}}</code> for pages about the E-UNI and its members and services.

* <code>{{t|Infobox class}}</code>, used on class pages.

* <code>{{t|Incursion sites}}</code> and <code>{{t|Incursions links}}</code> on pages about incursions.

* <code>{{t|Wormhole Links}}</code> on pages about wormholes.

=== Boilerplate messages ===

Sometimes there's a piece of text which needs to be re-used over and over again; <code>{{t|Syllabus}}</code> and <code>{{t|~~SyllabusReviewed~~}}</code> are two common examples from the class pages.
