I've done everything I could to make it work and I've read through the help pages on Templates here but still not able to get rid of the problem!

I've created the template pages and added the codes to them. Here's an example of a code:

{{Infobox song |Image =|Artist =|Prod =|Bgv =|Time =|Source =|Others =|Digital =} } (seperated to allow code to appear on page) Then when I want to go use it, an error message comes up saying "Template Loop Detected".What should I do?!? DoctorStrange 16:35, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

Do you have a link t this template. The problem is probably within the template. --Darth Stefan^Talk 19:06, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

Whoops sorry, here's the link http://spicegirls.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Infobox_song but when I want to use it on a page like this http://spicegirls.wikia.com/wiki/Headlines_(Friendship_Never_Ends)_(song), the error message comes up. DoctorStrange 09:04, March 18, 2010 (UTC)

This is because you've put what you're meant to put in the article into the template. :P Infobox templates are supposed to be a bunch of wikitext, HTML and whatever. You can look at a few examples on Wikia Templates. Let us know here if you need help with that. The 888th Avatar (talk) 09:38, March 18, 2010 (UTC)
