== Executive Summary ==
Transclusion in MediaWiki is the same as an 'include' in PHP programming, or an entity in XML, or a remote server image in an HTML page.
If you have a long page, you may want to break up the topic into sub-topics and then transclude the smaller articles into the super article.
== Definition ==
* [[wp:Wikipedia:Transclusion]]
* [[wp:Transclusion]]
== Syntax ==
Tranclusion syntax is the same as [[Templates]] syntax (i.e. double curly braces:
<nowiki>{{:Article Name}}</nowiki>
Note: since templates have their own 'template' namespace while regular articles are in the default namespace and thus use a preceding colon
== See Also ==
The wikipedia manual of style talks about how to deal with [[wp:Wikipedia:Article size]]
The [[wp:Wikipedia:Summary style]] article goes into more detail and there are related articles in the style guide also.
