{{tl|tlg}} (abbreviating "[t]emplate [l]ink {{small|(with)}} [g]eneral {{small|(options)}}") is a generalised version of the {{tl|tl}} ("template link") template. It can be used to replace or implement {{tlf|tl}} and related templates such as {{tl|tlb}}, {{tl|tlx}}, etc. |

===Parameters=== |
===Parameters=== |
||
⚫ | With the exception of {{mono|alttext}}, the named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default in most cases) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc.). They may be included in any order ([[#Examples|see Examples below]]). Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see [[#General-purpose formatting|the main table]] for all alternate options. |

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Template link general. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template uses Lua: |
This template, often abbreviated as {{tlg}}, is used to provide stylized formatting to template displays without actually using the template itself.
Parameters
With the exception of Template:Mono, the named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default in most cases) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc.). They may be included in any order (see Examples below). Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see the main table for all alternate options.
Parameter | Action | Use with {{example}} |
Default active |
---|---|---|---|
brace | Include braces as part of the template link | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | {{tlw}}/{{tn}} |
braceinside | Include innermost braces as part of the template link | Template:!((:Template:Example|{{example}}]] | |
bold | Renders the template link/name in bold | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | {{tlb}}, {{tlxb}} |
code | Display output using HTML <code>...</code> tags (monospaced font) |
{{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} |
{{tlc}}, {{Template link expanded}}, etc. |
italic | Display any parameters accompanying the template link/name in italics | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]|param}} | {{tlxi}} |
kbd | Display output using HTML <kbd>...</kbd> tags (monospaced font) |
{{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | |
nolink | Don't render the template name as a link | {{example}} | {{tlf}}, {{tnull}} |
nowrap | Prevent the insertion of line breaks (word wrap) in the output | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | |
nowrapname | Prevent word wrapping in the output of template name/link (parameters will wrap if needed) | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | |
plaincode | Uses <code style="border:none; background:transparent;">...</code> |
{{Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | {{tltss}} |
subst | Include a subst: prefix before the template link/name | {{subst:Template:!((:Template:Example|example]]}} | {{tls}}, {{tlxs}}, etc |
|alttext=[text] |
Use [text] as the label for the template link | {{Template:!((:Template:Example|Other]]}} | {{tla}} |
_show_result | Will also display the result of the template. | {{Min|7|-5}} → -5 |
Unnamed (Positional)
This template can take any number of unnamed parameters as parameters accompanying the template link (or name); see Examples below.
Examples
- Note
- On the source sister projects, en.wikipedia and Meta, X0, X1, X2, …, X9 are sandbox templates for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space. An auto-cleansing software facility exists that might be used to duplicate the facility on other Sister projects.
Script error: No such module "aligned table".
