	This template tests whether a given page [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Page_existence exists]. It can be useful in view of the maximum number of [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:ParserFunctions#.23ifexist: #ifexist] calls that can be used on a page. (However, in the case of frivolous use of #ifexist which was the reason for the limit, do not replace this use with frivolous use of this template!) Additionally, this template avoids a bug with the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:ParserFunctions#.23ifexist: #ifexist] parser function that causes pages it tests to appear in the wiki's [[Special:WantedPages\|Wanted Pages]] list.
