Doh! That's exactly what I'm trying to do. I misunderstood the
<noinclude> purpose.
Thank you so very much!!

Do you just want to produce a link to the template? Then use:
[[Template:NameOfTemplate]]
The <noinclude> tag does not prevent templates inside it from
evaluating. It marks a region of the article that should not be
transcluded into OTHER articles.
A quick example. You have a template T and article A. In template T,
you write:
Hello <noinclude>world</noinclude>
When you render Template:T by itself, you see "Hello world"
In article A you write:
{{T}}
When article A is rendered, you see only "Hello". Because you told
template T not to permit "world" to be transcluded into other articles.

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] noinclude doesn't work
According to the documentation, I should be able to reference a template
by doing this:
<noinclude>
{{NameOfTemplate}}
</noinclude>
But Mediawiki is transcluding the template into the page and I don't
want it there. I just want developers to be able to click the template
and grab the template text when they're creating a new article.
Is there a setting in LocalSettings.php that I need to make to get
<noinclude> to work? Someone else here installed the software, so I
haven't worked with that file, yet.
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks,
Maffy
