Template:Template link/doc

[purge]

This is the documentation page. It should be transcluded into Template:Template link. See Template:Documentation for more information.

This template is used to easily link to a template, while displaying the template brackets.

Usage

{{tl|template name|subst=yes/no|code=yes/no}}

template name can be any page, using the same conventions as transclusion. Basically the "Template:" prefix is optional, and a colon is required to link the main space.

Parameters can also be added, to a maximum of 8. Note that ='s must be escaped using {{=}}.

The |subst= parameter will determine whether the template link will display as a substed template or not. If the subst parameter is set, it will display the word "subst:" in front of the template link.

Set |code= to no to disable code formatting.

Examples

• {{tl|OS}} → {{OS}}
• {{tl|Template:Welcome|subst=yes}} → {{subst:Welcome}}
• {{tl|move|Page to move to|Optional reason}} → {{move|Page to move to|Optional reason}}
• {{tl|uw-vandalism|Minecraft|subst=1}} → {{subst:Uw-vandalism|Minecraft}}
