User:MacHershell/Templates

NOTE: I have used the greedy approach, I loaded these from My Mentor with the intent that I'll study, modify and possibly drop what I don't need. If you are looking for an excellent resource User:Whiteknight is it... I'm studying and learning from his work... :)

These are templates used in my user namespace, but won't likely be useful anywhere else. Some templates that create direct edit links to pages in my namespace, or templates which contain my signature, have been protected against transclusion into other pages besides my namespace. Other templates may be used in other places, if needed. I will revert any changes to these templates: if changes need to be made to suite them for a particular application, please copy the code to a new location and edit it there.
