[theme-reviewers] get_template_part()

Note:

get_template_part() should be used for *template* - i.e. *front-end* -
files. It is perfectly acceptable (and correct) to use include()/require()
for *functional* files to be included within functions.php. There may still
be cases where get_template_part() is insufficient, in which case
locate_template() should be used directly.

Thanks,

Chip
