-I was wondering what the best way to customise the templates is.
+This confuses me enormously. Perhaps because I am new to ikiwiki, to perl, to Linux, etc.
 
-Would it be best to copy them all into the wiki under version control or have them seperate?
+note and popups are templates? But they're not in the templates directory, and in my readings here, templates are supposed to be in the ../templates directory. 
 
-Thanks

+Is there a list of the TMPL_VAR-Variables that are defined by ikiwiki?
+
+What I'm trying to achieve is to print the URL of every page on the page itself and therefore I would need the corresponding value in the Template.
