MSG:
A template modifier. I.e. {{msg:stub}} shows
{{Stub}}
The use of msg has an effect when a template name clashes with a magic word. For example, if [[Template:CURRENTMONTHNAME]] contained "Test", then {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} would display "September" but {{msg:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} would display "Test".
SUBST:
A template modifier. Replaces the reference to the template (e.g. {{subst:template}}) with the content of the template.
This article is a stub. You can help Wikimedia by expanding it.
MSGNW:
A template modifier. Causes the template source to be pasted.
So <pre>{{msgnw:stub}}</pre> outputs:
{{msgnw:stub}}
__END__
Allows for trailing whitespace to be deliberately included in the page save.
