How can templates be used on talk pages, e.g., I tried  on a new user's talk page, but it didn't work. -- Jtneill - Talk 00:17, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Just posted a demo message showing that templates work on the talk pages. The reason why doesn't work on WE is that we don't have that template on our wiki. You can of course develop a new template in WE by copying the code over from WP -- just cite your sources :-) --Wayne Mackintosh 01:20, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see, that's good. But how can I see what code you used? I can't work out how to see the details of the edit you made in my talk page history? -- Jtneill - Talk 13:37, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, I found that by editing the thread, the syntax was a transclusion: . Thanks, Wayne. -- Jtneill - Talk 13:44, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't add the parameters properly when trying to use the Hello template here: User_talk:David_ti. How can I fix this up? I don't seem to be able to edit what I've posted on this user's talk page. -- Jtneill - Talk 10:23, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
