I just tried my method and it works for me (the one with <pre<noinclude></noinclude>>).
I'm running v1.11, and I've just tried it on Wikia's 1.12alpha - without success, I'm afraid: * Template: http://tinyurl.com/2ugkzt (http://scratchpad.wikia.com/index.php?title=Template:File&oldid=284739) * Transcluded: http://tinyurl.com/2so8qr (http://scratchpad.wikia.com/index.php?title=Scratchpad:Sandbox&oldid=284...)
Oddly enough, it shows up fine on the template's page, but not when transcluded. Not sure what I might be doing wrong there...
