TekWiki offers a number of '''Wiki templates''' that generate uniform information boxes, headlines, categories and the like.


Here's how to use some of these.
Please see the individual templates for instructions on their use:


==Oscilloscopes and similar instruments==
==Page skeletons==
* [[:Template:Company]] for key data on a company
* Components:
** [[:Template:CRT]] for [[cathode-ray tube]]s
** [[:Template:Vacuum Tube]] for other vacuum tubes (valves)
** [[:Template:Hybrid IC]] for hybrid integrated circuits
** [[:Template:Monolithic IC]] for monolithic integrated circuits
* [[:Template:Instrument Sidebar]] for generic instruments including spectrum analyzers, generators, ...
** [[:Template:Oscilloscope Sidebar]] specifically for oscilloscopes
** [[:Template:Probe Sidebar]] specifically for probes
* [[:Template:Plugin Sidebar]] for plug-in modules that go into other equipment
** [[:Template:TM500]] specifically for [[:Category:TM500 series plugins|TM500 series plugins]]
** [[:Template:TM5000]] specifically for [[:Category:TM5000 series plugins|TM5000 series plugins]]
* [[:Template:Patent]] for patents related to Tek or Tek equipment
* [[:Template:Person]] for lists of key biographical data on a person


<code><nowiki>{{Oscilloscope Sidebar |
==Queries==
  title=Name of model  |
* [[:Template:CRTs]] lists CRTs used in the referenced instrument
  summary=Short description of what it is |

  image=Photo of XYZ.jpg |
* [[:Template:Custom ICs]] lists Custom ICs used in the referenced instrument
  caption=What exactly is shown in the photo |
* [[:Template:Parts]] lists generic parts such as [[vacuum tubes]] used in the referenced instrument
  introduced=year the model was introduced |
* [[:Template:Patents]] lists patents by a specified inventor
  discontinued=last year the model was sold + 1 |
* [[:Template:Plugins]] lists plugins compatible with the referenced instrument

* [[:Template:MissingSpecs]] creates a '''Specifications''' headline and "Please add" paragraph, and categorises the page as  <code><nowiki>[[Category:Specifications needed]]</nowiki></code>.
</nowiki></code>
* [[:Template:MissingPics]] creates a '''Pictures''' headline and "Please add" paragraph, and categorises the page as  <code><nowiki>[[Category:Image needed]]</nowiki></code>.
The template adds <code><nowiki>[[Category:Introduced in (year)]]</nowiki></code> to the article.
If the introduction or discontinuation year is unknown, please use (?) in its place, e.g. <code><nowiki>introduced=(?)</nowiki></code>.


Example:
==Specifications==
{|
* [[:Template:Spec]] (together with [[:Template:BeginSpecs]], [[:Template:SpecGroup]], [[:Template:EndSpecs]]) for key specifications on instrument pages
|- valign="top"
|
<code><nowiki>{{Oscilloscope Sidebar |
