Template:Tlx

{{Tlx}}

Template documentationviewedithistorypurge

This is a template link with a variable number of example parameters (0–30), which can be used to show example inputs.

Syntax

Parameters

First parameter

The link to the template. Defaults to the page name (current page name: Tlx)

2nd to 31st parameter

The parameters of the template.

To add named parameters, example {{notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|3=3rd parameter}}, follow these steps:

1. Write the parameter normally. Example: {{tlx|notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|3=3rd parameter}}.
2. Then, count how many parameters you have added, so {{t|notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|3=3rd parameter}}.
   On this example, there are 4 parameters, so prefix 4= on the {{tlx}} template.
3. So, the code is {{t|notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4==3=3rd parameter}}, which results in {{notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|3=3rd parameter}}.

Note: Adding named parameters will force you to always prefix the unnamed parameter:

{{tlx|notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4=3=3rd parameter|4th parameter}} will not work

{{tlx|notice|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4=3=3rd parameter|5=4th parameter}} will work.

---

The following will only work after all the parameters of the demo template is placed.
Wrong: {{tlx|notice|style=code|<message>}}
Right: {{tlx|notice|<message>|style=code}}

Style (style=)

The style of the {{tlx}} template. Has 1 style:

• code, which encloses the {{tlx}} template with <code>

Prefix (prefix=)

The prefix for the template, useful when instructing the user to add subst, safesubst, or something similar.

Note: This does not add a prefix to the link. Use linkprefix instead as listed below.

Link Prefix (linkprefix=)

The prefix for the link itself, for linking to other languages/wikis. Also shows in the template link.

Note: This adds the prefix to the link itself. To add a prefix not included on the link, see above.

Block Mode (block=)

Makes the template styled as a block template, to aid in readability. Combine with style=code to get the best results.

Sample code

Syntax	Output
{{tlx}}	{{Tlx}} (uses the page name)
{{tlx|notice}}	{{notice}}
{{tlx|notice|Item1|Item2|Item3|Item4|Item5|...}}	{{notice|Item1|Item2|Item3|Item4|Item5|...}}
{{tlx|notice|2=param1=Item1}}	{{notice|param1=Item1}}
{{tlx|notice|prefix=subst}}	{{subst:notice}}
{{tlx|notice|linkprefix=wp}}	{{wp:notice}}
{{tlx|notice|style=code}}	{{notice}}
{{tlx|notice|2=Item1|3=Item2|4=Item3|block=true}}	{{notice |Item1 |Item2 |Item3 }}
