That's about right.  But I would say Wicket associates Java objects with
your markup ("template" is really not a very good word here precisely
because people think of Velocity or Freemarker, but also because there isn't
one markup file... a Wicket page is quite commonly a complex, recursive
merge of some number of markup files associated with the component hierarchy
through some concept of aggregation (for example, Panels) or inheritance
(for example, Markup Inheritance)).
