Transclusion is a method of building documents by using a call to pull information into the current document from some other document or template. This technique promotes efficiency and consistency since the information in question will not be entered (and need to be updated) separately in multiple places.

To see an example of transclusion used in DP Wiki, view the Edit window of any of the Jargon Guides or the LaTeX article.

For more details on transclusion in general, see Wikipedia's transclusion entry.
