Delete?

I don't even get this template. Should we keep it? It seems to have text in the edit body, but no actual text on the template. —Mas12806 (talk·contribs) 15:10, 21 December 2008 (UTC) Sure it has text:

<includeonly> [[Category:Checklists|{{PAGENAME}}]] {| style="background:#CFC; border: 1px dashed #090" width="100%" |- | style="padding:10px" | '''{{{1}}}''' {{#if:{{{noeditsection|}}}||<span style="float:right"><small><nowiki>[edit]</small></span>}} </includeonly>

This text does something. — MichaelXX2 15:16, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I understand it may do something. But what does it do MichaelXX2? If it is blank, how does it show an imporntant showcase on the Wiki? Thanks! —Mas12806 (talk·contribs) 15:38, 21 December 2008 (UTC) P.S. I thought someone had blocked you. Not that I want anyone to be blocked. Just saying.

If you don't understand what a template does, just assume it's important and leave it. — Defender1031*Talk 17:26, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Ok then, DeFender. Goodbye now. —Mas12806 (talk·contribs) 18:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

For the record, if you have a look at an example of the template in action, then it becomes pretty clear what it's for, even if you can't make sense of the wiki markup code. Namely, it starts a table with a specific format and a specific header, and inserts a category into the article. It also creates an edit link for that section of the page, unless it's been disabled. --Belthazar 21:00, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
