[edit] How to use the templates
The very nature of a wiki is to allow users to create/edit articles in any format. However, it's sometimes useful to standardize the format of certain articles so that they have some form of consistent appearance. The templates can also serve as a reminder to editors that contents for certain sections are not omitted.
The article templates can be used for creating new articles and editing existing articles.
- When creating new articles, use the template that are most suitable for your article. For example, if you're making a new article about an attraction, use the attraction template by copy-and-pasting the Wiki markup from the attraction article template.
- When editing existing articles, you may want to use the appropriate template to have them organized a certain format.
