:Hi, and welcome to Pensapedia! The default installation of the MediaWiki software doesn't include any templates. All the templates we have here at Pensapedia have been added manually, many of them copied from Wikipedia -- either directly or with some modification. If there's a Wikipedia template you'd like to incorporate here, you're welcome to copy the relevant code. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 21:01, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
:It looks like you want to copy the Wikipedia template [[Wikipedia:Template:Infobox Officeholder|Template:Infobox Officeholder]]. Assuming it will keep the same name, you would copy it to [[Template:Infobox Officeholder]]. However, you should be aware that many Wikipedia templates incorporate other templates or other arcane features (like ParserFunctions) which can be pretty daunting. Is there a reason why {{tl|Infobox Biography}} isn't sufficient? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 21:15, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
==Suggestions==
Sorry to be a stickler, because I really do appreciate your recent contributions, but just a few suggestions:
*I don't think we should include article links for all the Haller and Friedman kids. We try to anticipate whether or not a person is [[Pensapedia:Notability|notable]] enough to get their own article, and if not, we don't make the link.
*Better not to list ages, because those change, and the article might not get updated. (Same with stuff like, "they have been married 25 years" or "was founded 60 years ago," etc.)
I actually went to school with Vicki and see Nancy from time to time at [[Ballet Pensacola]], whose brochures & programs I design. I'm assuming you're their cousin/nephew? <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">— '''''[[User:Admin|admin]]''''' • '''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]''''' </span> 15:47, 5 August 2008 (CDT)
