MediaWiki: Transclusion - include parts of one page into another page, which avoids needing to update several pages if they have a shared section transcluded from a separate page.
If a large page has sections transcluded to a sub-page, it also makes it easier to link & redirect to the section if it exists on on a separate page, as the
-
<noinclude>
- Content within the<noinclude> </noinclude>
tags is excluded from transclusion on the target page. This content still appears on the source page. -
<includeonly>
- Content within the<includeonly> </includeonly>
tags is transcluded on the target page, but does not appear on the source page. -
<onlyinclude>
- Content within the<onlyinclude> </onlyinclude>
tags is transcluded on the target page, and also appears on the source page.
Examples:
- Help:Transclusion
- Player transclude the list from Player API

- Building Character Sheets is another large page with some sections transcended.
