This page contains directions for creating a standardized template for the Tub. If you're looking for general information on creating templates, go to Wikipedia's Quick Guide to Templates (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:A_quick_guide_to_templates).
A "generic" template is saved under Template:Sidebar. This template establishes a format and accepts two variables, one for the header and one for the text. You can use this generic template to create new templates that will all have a similar appearance. Here are some examples:
Code | Appearance | Code | Appearance | Code | Appearance | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
