Fyrimynd:Tlp
Appearance
{{tlp|...}}
This is the {{tlp}} (template link with parameters) template.
It can be used in documentation and talk page discussions to show how a template name would be used in code.
Here is how this template looks. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:
{{tlp|name|parameters}}
= {{name|parameters}}
Features of {{tlp}}:
- It shows a template name with a link to that template.
- It shows up to eight parameters.
- It also shows empty parameters. (See examples below.)
- It prevents line wraps in its output.
- It uses normal text style. (
{{tlx}}
, for instance, uses<code>...</code>
text style.)
This template belongs to a whole family of similar templates. See the see also section below for some of them. For instance, when writing documentation you might want to avoid a lot of unnecessary links, since it decreases readability – i.e. on the first occurrence of a template name, use {{tl}}, {{tlp}} or {{Tlx}}
and thereafter use {{tlf}}, {{tlc}}
or {{tld}}.
Examples
[rætta wikitekst]Code | Output | Comments |
{{tlp}} | {{tlp|...}} | Shows its own syntax. |
{{tlp|name}} | {{name}} | |
{{tlp|name|first}} | {{name|first}} | |
{{tlp|name|first|last}} | {{name|first|last}} | |
{{tlp|name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i|j}} | {{name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h}} | Shows up to eight parameters. The rest are dropped. |
{{tlp|name||three|four}} | {{name||three|four}} | Also shows empty parameters. |
{{tlp|name||three|}} | {{name||three|}} | Even shows empty parameters that come at the end. |
{{tlp|name|first=a|last=b}}
| {{name}} | Equal signs are a problem, but there are a couple ways to fix: |
{{tlp|name|2=first=a|3=last=b}}
| {{name|first=a|last=b}} | Use numbered parameters to fix it. Here, parameter "|2= " is assigned the string "first=a". Start with #2, since "name" is already in the "|1= " slot. Note that all subsequent parameters after a numbered parameter must also be numbered.
|
{{tlp|name|first{{=}}a|last{{=}}b}}
| {{name|first=a|last=b}} | Or, simply use, "{{=}}", the equal-sign template, to "escape" the symbol. |
{{tlp|name|2=1=a|3=2=b}}
| {{name|1=a|2=b}} | Both techniques also work with numbered positional parameters (e.g.: "|1= ", "|2= ").
|
{{tlp|name|2=1=a|last{{=}}b}}
| {{name|last=b}} | The named parameter ("|last= ") clobbered the prior one ("|2= "). Again, all subsequent parameters after a numbered parameter must also be numbered...
|
{{tlp|name|2=1=a|3=last=b}}
| {{name|1=a|last=b}} | ... but that's easy to fix, by adding the position number ("|3= ") to the last parameter.
