Transclusion is generally the inclusion of the content of a document into another document by reference.

The syntax is {{Namespace:Pagename}}. In short, some transclusion examples: If the source is in

Template ns (for ex "Template:Welcome"): use {{Welcome}}
Main ns (for ex "Lore"): {{:Lore}}
Other ns (for ex: User:Example): {{User:Example}}
If source is a subpage of the target (for ex « Transclusion/ja ») you can use subpage name, without the ns: {{/ja}}

What will transclude from a page can be controlled with the tags <noinclude>, <onlyinclude> and <includeonly> placed in the source page wikitext.

wiki code	What is rendered here (source page)	What is transcluded there (destination page)
text1 text2	text1 text2	text2
text1 text2	text1 text2	text1
text2	text2	text1 text2

{{Special:RecentChanges|namespace=10|limit=5}}, produce:

m 22:19

m 22:15

.

It does not work with FR/DE/... wikis (gives a 301 nginx error).

To include wiki pages in game, see Templates under Category:IGtemplate: all between {{IGend}} and {{IGstart}} will be displayed in game.
