Transclusion

Transclusion is a general idea in composing documents. It is a particularly important feature in MediaWiki, which is often encoded using the {{<Transclusion Page Name>}}. In PKC, it is intentionally related to the notion of Pullback in Category Theory.

Explained by Ted Nelson

Ted Nelson gave a Google Talk on Transclusion, and can be accessed online.
