Forum:Help Making a Template

I'm new to Wikia, and before I open my Wikia to my friends I need to make a template for them to create their characters' pages. On the right side should be a little table like on Wikipedia. It should include an image and the sections Details (underneath which being type, species, ability, rank) Clan (current and past), Names (kit, apprentice, warrior), Family (mother, father, sibling(s)), Training (mentor(s), apprentice(s)), and Site Appearances. There should be real text sections called description, personality, and history.

However, I don't understand how to make a template. Could somebody tell me how or make it for me? I'll be very grateful either way. Thank you. :]
 * Sure, Welcome to Wikia. I'll do it for you and try to explain it to you afterwards, if you leave a note on the sections you need, I'll sort it out. Can you use something like:

Clan could be a section of its own.. Once you've set up your wiki, I'll be happy to come over and help you with it if you need, I'm admin in a few places and started up a wiki or 2. 14:46, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
