This boilerplate is used for giving a new page a standard look. Copy the code below and add it to your new page before adding the relevant content. This boilerplate is currently in an early format and we are likely to add and change sections as time goes on. If you wish to suggest improvements to this boilerplate please use the discussion page. The current code and result of the code are shown below. Anything starting with !< -- and ends with --> is removable and will not affect the template.

<!--Comment: This section is for the language and the format of the page. The languages section is used for linking pages. So a example might be {{languages|Nails}} in which every page is connected with a /## on the end will link to that specific page. Eg: Nails/es Nails/fr even if there contain redirects. The header format can be seen in the header template with working explanation. The header connects categories and Version no. PLEASE ENTER THE VERSION AND INCREMENT No. WHEN YOU MAKE A PAGE. It helps everyone else know how old the page is versionwise -->
