[edit] Annotation in a template

Support for using annotations in templates has to be enabled by the site administrator.

When an annotation tag is added to a template, then on a page that already included the template the factbox is updated, but queries do not yet take the new annotation into account. For that, for the page that includes the template, edit and save has to be applied (purge does not work). After that, also on the page with the query edit and save has to be applied.

[edit] A query in a template

A query in a template is possible, and it can contain {{PAGENAME}}, see e.g. Template:Ask. However, a query with a template parameter only works with substitution, and cannot be used in computations, see Attribute:Weekday_number.

For example, {{ask|San_Diego}} gives only

while {{subst:ask|San_Diego}} gives, at the time of writing:
