Screenshot

An example is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Extension_code_in_wiki which can be seen at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Syntax_Highlighting

If opened in the inspector menu it displays pretty much nothing (screenshot attached) because there aren't any modifiable parameters. It comes off looking like it broke ;p.

It would be good if, instead of displaying the title, the inspector menu could display a slug that reads something like "This template has no editable elements".

This is already fixed in master, and will go out in wmf8; our apologies for it looking so denuded in that version!
