Template:AaTemplate;aa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}}
This 'Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}}' template documentation is transcluded for all Tlx family templates (Tlx, Tlxc, Tlxw, Tlxb) [edit].Masterpage
- Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:first parameter||first parameter}}aa{#ib:second||second}}aa#ib:third||third}}aa#ib:...||...}}aa#ib:tenth||tenth}}aa#ib:||...}}}} → Template:AaTemplate;Templateaa{#ib:second||second}}aa{#ib:third||third}}aa#ib:...||...}}aa#ib:tenth||tenth}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}}
- Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:2=first parameter|3=second|4=third|5=...|11=tenth||2=first parameter|3=second|4=third|5=...|11=tenth}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} → Template:AaTemplate;Templateaa{#ib:second||second}}aa{#ib:third||third}}aa#ib:...||...}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} if they might contain "=" signs.
- Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:<nowiki>first||<nowiki>first}}aa{#ib:second||second}}aa#ib:...||...}}aa#ib:999th</nowiki>||999th</nowiki>}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} → Template:AaTemplate;Templateaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} (for more than 10 parameters)
The three dots in these examples represent a number of arguments that have been omitted in the examples and are not an actual argument.
Purpose and naming
Mnemonically 'Template link expanded'. After Template:AaTemplate;Tlaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} 'Template link'.
- This template takes another template-name and some associated pipe-tricked (numbered) parameters (or 'pass parameters'), and displays them as an 'example demonstration' of how the template-name template could be coded, literally. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation.
- Specifics: Up to 10 pass parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) for the specified template are displayed as 'placeholders', and over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "|..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code = or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "
<nowiki>size=10</nowiki>" or all parameters as a string in "<nowiki>" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page. - 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>. 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<nowiki>{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|other parameters...}}</nowiki></code><pre>...</pre>.
- If given no additional parameters except
'template name' ({{{1}}}),it presents the same as the similar {{Tl}} macro template -- a blue link nested in curly-braces-- the same as a user would apply the template without parameters, but with a noticably clearer font and spacing on most modern browsers.
- Template:AaTemplate;Tlaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} display compared to Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}}: (Tl: {{Tl}} versus Tlx: Template:AaTemplate;Tlaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}})
- Comparatively, Template:AaTemplate;Tlaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} will not take or display additional parameters, and for minor technical reasons, may be preferred for mere listing and referencing in long pages involving a lot of template expansions.
- Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} has a named parameter subst. Setting this parameter to any string of length 1 or greater will place the string "subst:" before the template name, linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example Template:AaTemplate;Tlxaa{#ib:subst=Y||subst=Y}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}} will display Template:AaTemplate;Welcomeaa{#ib:||{{{3}}}}}aa{#ib:||{{{4}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{5}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{6}}}}}aa#ib:||{{{7}}}}}aa#ib:||...}}}}.
- Additionally, Tlx will take a 'named' parameter 'SISTER' to link interwiki to other sister projects such as one of these examples: '|SISTER=W:', 'Tlx|SISTER=M:', 'Tlx|SISTER=Q:', 'Tlx|SISTER=S:', allowing documentation or discourse about a template across interwiki boundaries.
Documentation
{{Tlx}} is a generalization of {{Tl}}, {{Tlp}}, etcetera with arguably better readable output. This depends on the browser, but too narrow uses of "{", "|", "}" in conjunction with links can be hard to read.
Usage
- {{Tlx|template name}}
- {{Tlx|template name|param}}
- {{Tlx|template name|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
- {{Tlx|template name|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|more}}
- {{Tlx|template name|param=value}}
Up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template
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.

- Template:Tlxb – same as {{Tlx}}, but gives the template name in boldface type (this can be useful when stressing the difference between two similarly named templates). Template:Tlb is the same, except it uses regular text instead of a monospaced non-proportional font.
- Template:Temt, – same as {{Tlx}}, but handles template names with the Template: prefix and templates not in the Template: namespace {{ns:10}}.
- Template:Para – for giving examples of template parameters and values only, instead of entire templates with parameters.
