Template:Template link expanded

{{[[Template:|]]}}

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{[[Template:|]]|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third parameter|...|tenth parameter}} produces: {{Template|first parameter|second parameter|third parameter|...|tenth parameter}}

When you want to indicate setting a value to one or more parameters, you would normally use the equals-sign ("="). This doesn't work here; instead use {{=}}, like so:

{{tlx|Template|first{{=}}first value|second|third{{=}}third value}} produces: {{tlx{|Template|firstfirst value|second|third=third value}}

For more than ten parameters – with or without equals-signs – instead wrap the entire list of parameters and their values in <nowiki> tags. When you do, you don't need to replace equals-signs. For instance:

{{tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=value''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{Template|first|second|third=value|...|999th}}

Purpose and naming

Mnemonically, template link expanded (after template link).

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to 20 of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 20 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical bar (pipe) symbol, as in |. A keyword parameter can be used with equals code = or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: <nowiki>content=size=10" or all parameters as a string in <nowiki> tags. If you use 21 or more parameters, all after the 20th will be replaced with a single |... at the end of the parameter list.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with <code><nowiki>. For example:

<code><nowiki&ht;{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|other parameters...}}</nowiki></code>

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with <pre>

Parameters

If the only parameter supplied is the template's name, {{tlx}}'s output is the same as {{tl}} – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
- {{tl|tl}} produces: {{tl}}
- {{tlx|tl}} produces: {{tl}}

{{tl}} will also not take nor display additional parameters.

Named parameters

|subst=

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlx|Welcome|subst=Y}} produces: {{subst:Welcome}}.

|SISTER=

For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as: SISTER=M: (Meta), facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.

Documentation

{{Tlx}} is a generalization of {{tl}} with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as "'{", "|", "}" and links can be hard to read when not monospaced.

Usage

{{tlx|Templatename}}

{{tlx|Templatename|param}}

{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}

{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|more}}

{{tlx|Templatename|param=value}}

There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.

TemplateData

Show example template usage without expanding the template itself. {{tnull}} is similar without linking the template.
