If you are reading this, you probably found this link at the talk page of one of the templates. If you see any bugs, have questions, feel free to raise a question on the talk page of this page, or on my main User_talk page.

the first 5 Template previews and their associated talk pages. The real magic happens inside the templates that are preloaded. You can see the three preloaded templates I created:
