Wikipedia Templates

As far as I can tell, none of the kinds of templates now listed in this disambiguation article, especially none under the heading "Computer science and information technology," resemble Wikipedia templates. If I am wrong, and one of the listed types is what Wikipedia templates are, it should say in that item's entry something like "Wikipedia templates are of this type." If I am wrong, then an additional type of template should be listed, namely Wikipedia templates. But, perhaps, Wikipedia templates were misnamed in the first place, and perhaps they should be known as Wikipedia Macros, though, even if this is right in retrospect, it's awfully late to make changes of this magnitude.
