सांचो:Template link null

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

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

Parameters

Named

With the exception of alttext, {{tlg}}'s named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc). They may be included in any order (see Examples below):

Parameter	Action	As in
braceinside	Include innermost braces as part of the template link	{{tlw}}
bold boldlink boldname	Renders the template link/name in bold	{{tlb}} {{tlx}} etc.
code	Display output using the (monospaced) HTML <code> formatting	{{tlc}} {{tlx}} etc.
italic italics	Display any parameters accompanying the template link/name in italic/s	{{tlxi}}
nolink	Don't render the template name as a link	{{tln}}
nowrap	Prevent the insertion of line breaks (word wrap) in the output
subst	Include a subst: prefix before the template link/name	{{tls}}
|alttext=[text]	Use [text] as the label for the template link	{{tla}}

Unnamed

{{tlg}} may take up to ten 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.
