Remarks

Templates provide a pattern that uses the template language defined in \ref patterns. See TemplateUsage to see a description of all the different kinds of templates. You can also look at Templates to see all the default templates that are provided. Templates can be overriden at the form, class/struct of field level. They also support randomly selecting between templates which is a good way to introduce some variation in your responses.
