Templates are shortcuts to re-used displays and functionality. Templates start with double curly braces {{, next comes the template name, then any parameters separated by the pipe | symbol, and finally two closing curly braces <nowiki}}</nowiki>. So Template:Todo could look like this:
{{todo|your in-text description of the todo item}}
Complex templates defined by categories are presented in forms. In-text template parameters can be specifically defined using the field=value syntax. Check the template for more information.
