Templates are used to duplicate the same content across more than one page. Changing a template in one place will immediately propagate the changes to all the pages that use it.
This page lists templates of this wiki. You can even create a template, just as long as you are sure it will be used on many pages or will benefit the wiki in some way, and that you or another editor can document it well. For more information on templates, check out Wikipedia's template page or Wikimedia's template page.
To insert a template into a page, type {{TemplateName}} (this is known as a tag) somewhere on the page, whether it be at the top or at the bottom or in a certain section. Every page with that tag in it will display the template text. TemplateName is the name after the colon symbol, e.g. the TemplateName for Template:Cleanup is Cleanup, so typing {{Cleanup}} will add that tag to a page.

Hello Templates, please do not delete discussions as we have a policy against it. If you would like to remove a discussion, then you may archive it.

As per this policy, players do not deserve articles on the RuneScape Wiki. Your page about a player has been moved to RuneScape:Templates. In the future, leave articles about yourself or your clan off of the mainspace; if you would like to make an article on such a topic, use your userpages.
As per this policy, player mentions on the RuneScape Wiki are to be extremely limited; your addition of a player onto an article was inappropriate. Continuing to create or revert pages in an attempt to promote a player will be considered vandalism, and will get you blocked from editing. Thank you.
Hello {{subst:BASEPAGENAME}}, your recent interactions with other users have been considered abusive{{subst:#if:|, specifically }}.

Hello, Templates. Per the RuneScape Wiki's style guide, references to floor numbers should be made using the British system: the ground floor level with the ground, then the first floor immediately above the ground floor, and so on. Please do not convert floor numbers to the American system again. Thank you.
Please do not edit other users' userpages on the RuneScape Wiki, as per this policy. If it was your userpage, please log in before editing to avoid uncertainty over whether the edits are what the owner wants. However, a few exceptions can be made. You may edit another user's userpage:
... if you notice anything obviously rule-breaking on a user page (crude photos, messages that may be harmful to someone else or anything that breaks one of Jagex's rules). If you are unsure if the content breaks a rule, contact another user to check it out.
... if editors are given permission by the author to edit the page. This includes guestbooks and some sandboxes.
... to revert vandalism.
Any other edits may be reverted if we think they may not be the page owner's, and if they appear to be vandalism you may be blocked from editing the RuneScape Wiki. Thank you.

Hello, Templates. You added a rare drop to a monster page that has access to the rare drop table. This creates duplicate entries for drops. If you are unsure if a monster has access to the rare drop table or if a drop is on the table, check the bottom of the monster's drops list. If it has access to the rare drop table it will be located there. Remember: You do not need to be wearing a ring of wealth to gain access to the drop table; this only improves the chances of a better drop. Thank you.
Hello, Templates. Your recent edit used American English. Per the style guide, British English should be used in articles, so please try to adhere to these guidelines in subsequent edits. Thanks.
Hi Templates, thank you for uploading an image to the RuneScape wiki. However it has been moved/re-uploaded as per the Images and media policy, specifically this subsection. In the future, it would be helpful if you could upload images under a more suitable or descriptive name. Thank you,
While we do appreciate your attempt to improve the wiki, your upload is of a subject that already exists as another file uploaded to the RuneScape Wiki. Most files' names follow the laid-out nomenclature, so you may search the wiki for the file containing your subject before you upload it or look at the existing images used on the subject's article.
Your edit history indicates that you are close to breaking the three-revert rule, or have already broken it. An editor must not make more than three reverts, whether in part or whole, on a page within a period of 24 hours. Violating this rule may lead to a block. To avoid being blocked, consider using the article's talk page to discuss changes you want to make, and work towards a version that represents consensus.
Please do not try to express ownership of any articles or files on the RuneScape Wiki, as per RS:OWNERSHIP. Continuing to sign or revert pages in an attempt to express ownership will be considered vandalism, and may get you blocked from editing. Thank you.
Thanks for trying to update the charm log. Unfortunately, you did not update the page correctly and your edits had to be modified. In the future, please follow the instructions listed at the top of each charm log.
Please do not incorrectly update charm logs by adding extremely erroneous or otherwise impossible numbers. It is considered vandalism. In the future, please follow the instructions listed at the top of each charm log page. Thank you.
Hello. An image that you have uploaded appears to be personal. Personal files should not be hosted on the RuneScape Wiki (see RS:NOT#HOST). If you want to add a picture of your RuneScape character, or any other media that doesn't fit in an article, you may upload it on an image hosting site, such as Photobucket, ImageShack, or Imgur. If you need more details feel free to ask any question you have on my talk page.
The RuneScape wiki deals with facts about the world of Gielinor as created by Jagex, including the games RuneScape and Armies of Gielinor, the novel series written by T.S. Church, and any statements, posts and videos created by Jagex. For this reason, please do not add fanon details, such as player-created gods, NPCs or factions to the RuneScape Wiki.
Thank you for attempting to add trivia to the RuneScape Wiki. However, the trivia you added was not entirely appropriate for the article and was removed. Please try to consider whether a piece of trivia is really noteworthy or not. For example, just because an item looks like something from another game or movie does not mean that it is worthy of having a spot on the page. For more information, please check the trivia policy. Thanks,
Please do not add content that is only relevant to Old School RuneScape to RuneScape Wiki pages. This wiki is for the live game; continuing to add inappropriate information will be considered vandalism. The relevant wiki for 2007 servers may be found here. Thank you.
