==Getting started==
# Install mediawiki and the templatedata extension locally
# Add some templates to your mediawiki extension - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_journal is a good example to start with. You can export pages from wikipedia and import them into your own mediawiki installation using https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export and http://dev.wiki.local.wmftest.net:8080/wiki/Special:Import
# Try editing template data both manually and with the GUI
