==Wiki variables and templates==
Use <nowiki>{{SITENAME}}</nowiki> to see the current Wikia.  For instance, '''''<nowiki>{{SITENAME}}</nowiki>''''' on this site prints out as '''''{{SITENAME}}'''''.
That and a few other templates are common to MediaWiki sites.
Check the [{{SERVER}}/index.php?title=Special%3AAllpages&from=&namespace=10 current list of all templates on this Wikia].
You can create templates.  After you create the page Template:XXX, using the command  <nowiki>{{XXX}} </nowiki> will include that content in your current page.  So, if you have something that needs to be included on many other pages, you might want to use a template.
Most templates available on the Central Wikia can be used on individual wikia with just "wikia:" prefixed to the name. See the help page on Central at [[Wikia:Help:Shared templates]].
