The {{tem|about}} template is used at the top of an article to direct the reader to similar articles that they may have been looking for. When using this template, do not use the piped-link formatting when linking to the other articles (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Dry Dry Desert (course)|here]]</nowiki></code>). Instead, just link to the article using its full name (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Dry Dry Desert (course)]]</nowiki></code>). It's only necessary to use a piped-link when linking to a specific section in the article (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Super Mario 64#Enemies|Super Mario 64 § Enemies]]</nowiki></code>).

In addition, there are some templates that form a table to fill in quick statistics, known as "infoboxes". For example, {{tem|infobox}} provides basic information about a game, while {{tem|PMenemy}} provides an overview of the RPG stats of an enemy from ''Paper Mario''. These special templates should go into every article it applies to: in this case, every game and ''Paper Mario'' enemy article, respectively.
