Forum:Making templates

I'm an admin on the Vampire Academy Wiki, and I want to make an admin template that I can put on my userpage, but I have no idea how to create templates.  Love and Lust  17:02, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * Templates are coded in exactly the same way as normal pages, except you put Template: on the front of their name.
 * When you add a template to an article, you can add arguments to it, a template in a page may look like this - the text after the | symbol are "arguments" to the template. The first argument replaces the text  every time it occurs in the template, the second argument replaces the text , etc. --  Random  Time  17:09, June 17, 2012 (UTC)
