When editing on Davis Wiki you can insert an include macro ([[Include(PageToInclude)]]).

Here are the known include files. Not all are serious, some just reflect the odd humor of the moment during some people's wiki editing:

There are includes for requesting content, adding additional information to the comment macro, tagging comments, marking questionable content, marking balance issues, marking historical content, funny stuff, and awards.
