{{Tlxi}}
Usage
संपादनThis template is a {{tl}}
-style template-link tag that accepts and italicizes parameters. It's the same as {{tlx}}
except that the template parameters are shown in italics. Its main use is in template documentation, to give example input where the parameters are unnamed sequential ones and we're showing variable, sample input. It really should mark up the parameter with <var>...</var>
, not just typographic italics, but the underlying Template:Tlg doesn't have an option to execute that markup (yet).
Examples
संपादन{{Tlxi|Template|first parameter|second|third|...|eleventh}}
→{{Template|first parameter|second|third|...|eleventh}}
{{Tlxi|Template|2=first parameter|3=second|4=third|...|12=eleventh}}
→{{Template|first parameter|second|third|...|…}}
if they might contain "=" signs (note the off-by-one notation – parameter 1 remains the name of the template){{Tlxi|Template|<nowiki>first|second|...|999th</nowiki>}}
→{{Template|first|second|...|999th}}
(for more than 10 parameters)
If Template is to be passed more than nine parameters (using up to the tenth of {{Tlxi}}
's own parameters), the remaining parameters have to be baked into the actual eleventh parameter of {{Tlxi}}
:
{{Tlxi|Template|first parameter|second|third|fourth|fifth|sixth|seventh|eighth|ninth|<nowiki>tenth|eleventh|twelfth|thirteenth|...</nowiki>}}
- or
{{Tlxi|Template|first parameter|second|third|fourth|fifth|sixth|seventh|eighth|ninth|tenth{{!}}eleventh{{!}}twelfth{{!}}thirteenth{{!}}...}}
- or
{{Tlxi|Template|2=first parameter|3=second|4=third|5=fourth|6=fifth|7=sixth|8=seventh|9=eighth|10=ninth|11=<nowiki>tenth|eleventh|twelfth|thirteenth|...</nowiki>}}
- →
{{Template|first parameter|second|third|fourth|fifth|sixth|seventh|eighth|ninth|tenth|eleventh|twelfth|thirteenth|...}}
If a twelfth parameter is passed to {{Tlxi}}
(i.e., an 11th to the Template it calls in parameter 1), that parameter's value will be output as "…" and subsequent parameters ignored.
The rest of the documentation is for {{tlx}}, which works the same way.
Note: This documentation for {{tlx}}
is also transcluded by its derivatives {{tlxb}}
, {{tlxc}}
, {{tlxw}}
(edit · master page).
This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.
Basic use
संपादन(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)
{{tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|twentieth}}
produces:{{Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|twentieth}}
Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with {{=}}:
{{tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|twentieth}}
produces:{{Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|twentieth}}
For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use <nowiki>...</nowiki>
thus:
{{tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}}
produces:{{Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}
Purpose and naming
संपादनMnemonically, template link expanded (after template link).
This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.
Up to 20 of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 20 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical bar (pipe) symbol, 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. If you use 21 or more parameters, all after the 20th will be replaced with a single |...
at the end of the parameter list.
- 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>
.<nowiki>{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|other parameters...}}</nowiki>
</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 <pre>...</pre>
.
Parameters
संपादन- If the only parameter supplied is
{{{1}}}
, i.e. a template's name,{{tlx}}
's output is the same as{{tl}}
– i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
{{tl}}
will also not take nor display additional parameters.
- Named parameters
|subst=
- Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string
subst:
linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example,{{tlx|Welcome|subst=Y}}
produces:{{subst:Welcome}}
. This is similar to the action of the{{tlxs}}
template:{{tlxs|Welcome}}
produces: {{subst:Welcome}}.
|SISTER=
- For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as:
|SISTER=M:
(Meta),|SISTER=Q:
(WikiQuote),|SISTER=S:
(WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.
|LANG=
- For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as:
|LANG=de:
(German),|LANG=sv:
(Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.
Documentation
संपादन{{Tlx}} is a generalization of {{tl}}, {{tlp}} etc., with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as " { ", " | ", " } " and links can be hard to read when not monospaced (and hard to click on; for uses like {{!}}
, see {{tlw}}, which makes the click target bigger).
Usage
संपादन{{tlx|Templatename}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|more}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param=value}}
There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.
Examples
संपादन- Note
- At the en.wikipedia and Meta sites, 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.

{{tlx|x2| | {{x2||two}} | <nowiki /> handles the space |
{{tlx|x2| | two}} | {{x2| | two}} | | is okay |
{{tlx|x2| {{!}} two}} | {{x2 | | two}} | {{!}} is dubious |
{{tlx|x2|2=|3=two}} | {{x2|two}} | empty really doesn't work |
{{tlx|x2|2=one|two}} | {{x2|two}} | "two" overrides "2=one" |
{{tlx|x2|3=two|2=one}} | {{x2|one|two}} | irregular parameter order is okay |
- Unlimited parameters as one
<nowiki>...</nowiki>
string {{tlx|convert|<nowiki>14|m|ftin|abbr=out|sp=us</nowiki>}}
