Forum:Template Loop Detected

I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. Help me understand.--Phantom Stranger 01:50, March 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * It means that your template is using its self. It most commonly happens when you thought you were copying a template from another wiki, but you did not actually copy the template's code, just the code you use on pages to USE the template. --Uberfuzzy 04:09, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

How do I actually copy the code? --Phantom Stranger 16:55, March 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * You need to click edit on the template page and copy the contents there. Have you read Help:Templates? 17:22, March 30, 2010 (UTC)

Well I thought that's what I did. Is it possible that there may be some other cause? Take a look: http://vampirehunterd.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Quote --Phantom Stranger 02:26, March 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've fixed this for you. The closing " " tag should be at the very end of the template; otherwise all your documentation is included as part of the template. ;) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  02:41, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
