- 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. — admin • talk 21:01, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
- It looks like you want to copy the Wikipedia template 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 {{Infobox Biography}} isn't sufficient? — admin • talk 21:15, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
