		+	==Use of templates==
		+	The Cantr wiki uses a number of templates to make editing easier.
		+
		+	===Infoboxes===
		+	Infoboxes are small tables that allow you to take all the information about an item and display it in a single chunk. Categories will be generated automatically - please do not add category tags to an article that uses infoboxes. Use infoboxes whenever possible - copy the format of another page of the same type as the page you are writing.
		+
		+	===Choice templates===
		+	Cantr has many cases where several tools, machines or semi-finished products are used in the same way - for example, if the manufacturing menu says a hammer is required to make something, the [[stone hammer]] will substitute. For these cases, "choice templates" exist that will generate the full list of interchangeable objects. For example, use <nowiki>{{hammer}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>[[hammer]]</nowiki> to generate the text {{hammer}}.
		+
		+	===Tags===
		+	Pages missing important information, pages in need of reformatting, pages under major reformatting, and certain other types of pages should be marked using tags, such as <nowiki>{{rewrite}}</nowiki> or <nowiki>{{construction}}</nowiki>.
