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

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.

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?
