gollark: DokuWiki has an include plugin or something. But I don't think it functions well as a templating engine.
gollark: What do you mean "templates"?
gollark: It MIGHT be.
gollark: Of course Minoteaur is far superior.
gollark: Nice plugin support & many plugins, flat files for storage, good configuration.
