[edit] Smiley Template
Taken from User:Cactus.man/Sandbox 
{{sm|}} or just {{sm}}, since no parameter defaults in a smile. 
To get a tongue smiley, for example, do {{sm|:P}} or {{sm|:p}}. 
Rest of examples can be found in code, but heck, I'll document it anyway.
Other invocations/tranclusions:
colon/apostrophe/closeParen:'( - for a crying image. 
colon/capitalD:D - for an emoticon for a delighted emoticon. 
colon/openParen:( gives 
semicolon/closeParen;) gives 
eight/hyphen/closeParen8-) gives 
semicolon/capitalD;D gives 
colon/capitalS colon/lowerS colon/question:S :s, and :? gives 
openParen/idea/closeParen(idea) gives 
colon/capitalP colon/lowerP:P and :p gives
