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)).
