:::The easiest way is to transclude a page like a template, e.g. <nowiki>{{:Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Ganondorf}}</nowiki>. Note the : before the page name, without this it'll look in the Template: namespace. You can see this in action at [[BS Zelda: Kodai no Sekiban/Printable version]]. This page has no real content of its own, meaning it only has to be updated when an entirely new page is added to the guide. | :::The easiest way is to transclude a page like a template, e.g. <nowiki>{{:Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Ganondorf}}</nowiki>.

:::For really fancy results you can tag parts of a page that are not to be included <nowiki>(<noinclude>) or else are shown only when included (<includeonly>)</nowiki>. You can see this demonstrated rather confusingly at [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tamriel:Fort_Frostmoth this source page] vs. [http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Bloodmoon:Fort_Frostmoth this target page]. The first has all the text, but due to the mixed tagging each page has its own unique links. | :::For really fancy results you can tag parts of a page that are not to be included <nowiki>(<noinclude>) or else are shown only when included (<includeonly>)</nowiki>.

:::[[ | :::[[wikipediaWikipedia:Tools/Navigation popups|Wikipedia's Navigation popups]] use a fancy Javascript method to extract a chosen section but I haven't looked into it. For most purposes the other two methods should be sufficient. [[User:Garrett|Garrett]]<sup>[[User talk:Garrett|Talk]]</sup> 16:19, 17 May 2006 (PDT) | ||
::::I've thought about that... But Templates are designed for something else entirely. Despite the fact that you can create {{{Template:GAME_NAME/BOSS_GUIDE/BOSS_NAME}}} it would get confusing quickly. For that very reason I chose to copy/paste my own 'custom' navigation bar with "elite" (pun intended) icons throughout my [[Space Quest III: The Pirates of Pestulon/Table of Contents|SQ3]] guide. I guess there is no other way, really, to include such pages. Perhaps if the community could decide on a global format for certain data output (like for bosses), the Wiki could be better "suited" to fit our needs. Thanks for the JavaScript link, however... I'll investigate that. --[[User:theEXIT|theEXIT]] <sup>[[User_talk:theEXIT|talk]]</sup> | ::::I've thought about that... But Templates are designed for something else entirely.
