<translate> This template is used for reusing parts of pages in other pages.</translate> <translate> This practice has several advantages:</translate>
<translate>
- Reduces maintenance by avoiding duplicate content that must be updated multiple times</translate>
<translate>
- Improves content quality by encouraging editors to merge related content, rather than having multiple versions in various stages of development</translate>
<translate>
- Fosters collaboration by channeling contributors into one place, rather than working in parallel
This template extends the capabilities of the built-in [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Transclusion</tvar>|normal transclusion]].

this— <translate> Change the initial text of the hatnote.

Notice that if the transclusion is done from a section level 3, and the transcluded subsections are level 3 too, then the transcluded subsections will show with the same hierarchy as the transcluding section, which is probably not desirable, so use with caution.</translate>
<translate>
Replacing a section with an excerpt
</translate>
<translate> A section is often a summary of a more precise page dealing with a subtopic.</translate> <translate> Sometimes it's convenient to replace the content of such a section with an excerpt of the page about the subtopic, after merging the original content of the section (if any) into the page about the subtopic.</translate> <translate> This improves both the page about the subtopic and the section, reduces maintenance, drives contributors to collaborate, etc.</translate>
<translate> An efficient way to proceed is:</translate>
<translate>
- Open the section for editing in one tab, and the page about the subtopic in another.</translate>
<translate>
- Copy the text of the section and append it to the lead of the page about the subtopic.</translate>
<translate>
- Consolidate and adjust the combined lead using common sense.</translate>
<translate>
- Save the changes in the child article with an edit summary like: Copied content from <tvar name=1>[[Page]]</tvar>; see that article's history for attribution.</translate>
<translate>
- Back in the section, delete all content and replace it with an excerpt of the page about the subtopic.</translate>
<translate>
- Save the changes in the section with an edit summary like: Move content to <tvar name=1>[[page about the subtopic]]</tvar> and leave an excerpt.
Excerpt trees
</translate>
<translate> When a very general article uses excerpts from more specific articles, which in turn use excerpts from even more specific articles, then a tree structure emerges, called an "Excerpt tree". </translate>
<translate> Below you can navigate the main excerpt trees on this wiki.</translate> <translate> It's useful for editors interested in expanding or improving them.</translate>
