Editing Help:Transclusion (section)

=====Target document markup=====
To transclude a section marked as above into another page (the "target page"), use the following line on that page, substituting PAGENAME for the "source" document from which text to be transcluded, and SECTIONNAME with the name of the section you want to transclude:
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{PAGENAME|transcludesection=SECTIONNAME}}</syntaxhighlight>

Thus each section enclosed within <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline><onlyinclude> … </onlyinclude> </syntaxhighlight> tags will always be rendered when the <code>transcludesection</code> parameter is not set (when the document is viewed ordinarily, or when the document is transcluded without setting the <code>transcludesection</code> parameter as shown below), and will be rendered by transclusion on any page that does set <code>transcludesection</code> to the section's name.  It will ''not'' be rendered by transclusion that uses the <code>transcludesection</code> parameter but sets it to anything other than the name of the section.

Also, when providing PAGENAME, without providing a [[Wikipedia:Namespace|Namespace]], the wiki will assume that the PAGENAME belongs in the [[Wikipedia:Template_namespace|Template Namespace]]. To transclude from a [[Wikipedia:Main_namespace|Mainspace]] article, use :PAGENAME.

:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{:PAGENAME|transcludesection=SECTIONNAME}}</syntaxhighlight>
