===Repetition within a page===
On pages where there is a lot of repetitive information&nbsp;— various kinds of lists, usually&nbsp;— it is sometimes useful to make a template that contains the repeating text, and then call that template multiple times.  For example, [[Template:EH listed building row]] is used repeatedly to construct tables in many articles.

Simple repetition of the same text can be handled with repetition of a parameter in a single template: e.g., {{tl|3x}}, where <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{3x| howdy!}}</syntaxhighlight> produces <code>{{3x| howdy!}}</code>.

For more information on repetition, see also [[m:Help:Recursive conversion of wikitext]]. 

For more information on the current template system, see [[Wikipedia:Template namespace]].
