I went to make my profile and I had never done anything related to a wiki. I remembered seeing something a

I think you need to add your username to the chat names list for that to work.

We likely need to improve the docs

Fairly new page (this year), so would love any feedback if there's rough edges

cupparex, I think your includeonly syntax was correct from looking at the edit history. includeonly means when you view https://indieweb.org/Template:cupparex directly, though, it won't appear. It would only appear on the wiki when you use {{cupparex}} in a page. The includeonly is optional, though.
#
gRegor
The curly braces {{cupparex}} is telling the wiki to include that template on the page

Thanks @eRegor I was flipping back and forth to that instruction page and copied the wrong text for the basic one. (totally user error lol) Can I ask though, what's the benefit of the <includeonly> and the other additional options. (and sorry, I just saw you replied here)
#
gRegor
If someone lands on the template page itself (rare, but possible), it gives some more context and instructions on how to use it. Here's mine for example: https://indieweb.org/Template:gRegor

I also use it to link to that tutorial, to help it be more discoverable
