Looking for something to do? Check [[:Special:ShortPages]] and [[:Special:WantedPages]]. These have the shortest pages or things that are missing, respectively.

==Custom Templates==

All templates start and end with double braces.

===Alias Templates===

People change their username online. This can be for a variety of factors, and it is important that this is kept up to date. Thus, templates exist for players that may have multiple usernames - for example, {{GameBop}}. One can mouse over one of these names to see anything else they may have went by. Templates that use older names should redirect to one "main" alias page.

===Message Boxes===

Currently, message boxes exist for the following situations:

* Stub: A page is nowhere close to complete and needs significant work done

* WIP: A page is almost done, has most basic information, but still needs more

* In Progress: The page's subject matter is currently ongoing and may change suddenly

More are expected as need necessary.

===Matchboxes===

A "match box" is a box that can be used to put basic information about a tennis match. Their documentation can be found [[Template:MATCHBOX Infobox style|here.]]

===Navboxes===

The following navigation boxes ("navboxes") exist for ease of communication across the site:

* Tournaments: Lists all canon [[tennis tournaments]].

* Types: Lists all common types of tennis.

More are expected as need necessary.

==Resources==

* https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki The ~~mediawiki~~ home page, where most things can be found.

This section has resources for wiki-building elements.
