NOTE: Cursory reading of the items provided in the enumeration will readily tell any reader they do not pertain to a "Template" per se but rather, to a WEB PAGE that is generated by a Template pertained in the article. The template described in the article for example DO NOT "sell products online" or "display a gallery of photo". It is the web page generated by such template that provide any such text functionality (those provided in the list). I was attempting to provide an edit but unfortunately, objections were made but without understanding what they were objecting for. Hence, the foregoing discussion as to send the message across the community; "Kindly use informed, unbiased, and objective judgement in evaluating an edit before airing an objection." Good day, Wikipedians!

This entire "series" of templating articles appears to have a lot of original research in it and represents an attempt to formalize a nomenclature for a set of technologies that are still in enormous evolution and flux themselves. The /Archive 1 even suggests putting original research in "supplementary pages" where are simply other wikipedia articles. That isn't what wikipedia is for. I would suggest merging some of the articles together and cutting out the stuff that isn't referencable. -- NealMcB 18:08, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Zope Page Templates | Zope | Is a Embedded programable language implemented as a Attribute Language. |
by the reference to the now-existing Template Attribute Language article. I'm not sure what is meant by "embedded programmable language" anyway; IMHO it is no programming language at all; if "programable language" was written on purpos, it must be explained, which doesn't seem to me to be the case at the linked location. -- TobiasHerp 17:05, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
There are at Web_template_system#Server-side_systems list the item "Merge On Browse", but it is a Web_template_system#Distributed_systems item good candidate, because a "client side templating ENGINE" (with server-side inputs and temmplates) runs in a "distributed fashion".
Someone should repair all those Embedded complex language links. Most of them do not point to the same target nor the Target exists. I didn't find any further explanation of what Embedded complex language means at all.

This article on a technology subject has apparently fallen under the spell of a project focused on philosophical metathinking about "Systems" (an all-encompassing vague word). This has caused the article to become borderline useless for those of us with a practical interest in the subject. For someone reading up on current web page generation technology, this page provides only confusion and semi-nonsense too far removed from reality to be of any value. Furthermore the article does not link to an alternative real-world article on the subject, even if such an article might exist somewhere.
More specifically, some major issues with the content of this article are:

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Web template system. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than
regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors
have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the

The section on static site generators discusses WYSIWYG HTML editors instead. The two should be separated.
A static site generator is not an editor and does not include an editor; it is an application that generates (the files of) the website from a description in some other (often generator-specific) format. Editing the source files and using the generator are two separate things. This format may or may not look like HTML pages with some templating syntax thrown in, so the connection with this article is tenuous. Examples: Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby; some more are listed here.
Web page editors such as FrontPage and DreamWeaver interactively let their users create websites directly, without a separate site generation process. When using some templating, they will do a bit of static site generation under the hood; but generators they aren't. Rp ( talk) 21:16, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
