I know I'm resurrecting this thread, and I apologise in advance to all the zombies out there. ;-)

Many times, a template will call other templates. If you simply copy-paste the template you need, you won't get any of the templates on which it depends. To fix this, go to  on the wikia with the template you want to copy. Enter the name of the template in the big box:

When you export like this, you'll download an XML file that includes the template you want plus all the other templates it calls. The results screen will list all of these for you. BE CAREFUL!! If you already have templates on your wikia with any of those names, they will overwrite your templates when you import. To fix this, edit the XML file (using any text editor) and rename the offending templates before you import.

To import, visit  on your wikia. Enjoy! :-D
