The problem was that the page wasn't recognizing the template and was treating it as a normal page instead. When you make a template, make sure you name it Template:TemplateName instead of just TemplateName. The DC and Marvel wikis have custom namespaces called DC Database and Marvel Database respectively, and that's why it works differently there.

I created a new template page called Template:Staff and put in the code. Putting the template in a page works exactly the same as it does on the other sites, but you have to change the top line from "DC Database:Staff Template" to just "Staff". You'll see what I'm talking about if you look at the Trevor Von Eeden page. If you need more help with templates or anything else wiki-related, let me know. You can leave me a message here.
