For the Tagalog language template, see {{Tgl}}

T links to a Template. Tl creates a formatted link to a template in teletype style and surrounds it with two brackets which are not a part of the link.

Usage

{{Tl |1= }}

Template parameters

ParameterDescriptionDefaultStatus
1template name (any namespace is ignored)Tloptional
2display name (displayed as-it-is)parameter 1optional
3
lang
interwiki language code (ISO 639), if the template is in another Wikipedia
can also be specified with lang=
emptyoptional
4+/- to precede the template name with the namespace Template:
  • + (plus sign) to make Template: a part of the link,
  • - (minus sign) to precede Template: as plain text.
The +/- parameter can as well be specified with parameter 2 or 3;
(when both signs are specified, "+" has precedence).
emptyoptional
incl
i
i or incl is a one-digit formatting option:
  • 0: none of the brackets are part of the link
  • 1: the inner brackets are part of the link
  • 2: both brackets are part of the link
  • 3: like i=2, with monospace font
  • 4: like i=0 but with the name in teletype style
  • 5: like i=1 but with the name in teletype style
  • 6: like i=2 but with the name in teletype style
  • 8: without surrounding brackets
  • 9: like i=8 but with the name in teletype style large (font-size:128%)
3optional
codeany value, for a surrounding <code> tag  (like {{Tl2}}).
With code=tt also the surrounding brackets are in teletype style.
emptyoptional
linkreturns plain text instead of a link when set to link=noemptyoptional
casefor formatting of the namespace prefix:
  • case=l lowercase display "template" instead of "Template"
  • case=i internationalized display, in general a link
  • case=n internationalized display, without linking it
emptyoptional
i18nanother language than {{int:lang}} for namespace translation (when case=i or case=n)enoptional
parmto display templates parameters  (like {{Tlx}})

Usage e.g. parm=template name or parm=1=template name
or  parm=&#124;1=&#124;2=&#124;code=y" gives "|1=|2=|code=y".

For a better appearing and easier to format explanatory, use the meta template {{Tle}}.
emptyoptional
fullexpanded display: Template:{{Example}}  (like {{Lts}})
request this expansion with either full=5 or 5=full.
emptyoptional

Additional information

The template is intended to be used in the following namespaces: all namespaces

The template is intended to be used by the following user groups: all users

Localization

This template is not intended to be localized.

The template does not generate any localizable text;
with + or - always the namespace in English: "Template" is displayed;
only in combination with case=i or case=n the namespace can be translated using the {{LangSwitch}} construct (according to i18n).

[edit subpage]

Note: The templates T, T0, T1, T2, Tl, T9 use the same main template with the only difference of the default value for the parameter incl=.

Template i appearance
T 2 {{T}}
T0 8 T0
T1 1 {{T1}}
T2 0 {{T2}}
Tl 3 {{Tl}}
T9 9 T9
This means that each of them can be converted into each one of the others by just replacing that parameter:
T {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|2}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}} {{Tl}} WWWWWWWWWWWW
T0 {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|8}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}} Tl
T1 {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|1}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}} {{Tl}}
T2 {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|0}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}} {{Tl}}
Tl {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|3}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}}}} {{Tl}}
T9 {{Tl|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|{{{lang|}}}}}}|i={{{i|{{{incl|9}}}}}}|code={{{code|}}}}} Tl


Examples

with code=y

The following examples are Lua supportet:

The parameter case (with the other parameters supporting it) intends to be rarely used, but when in a textual environment a special appearance is desired, with the namespace prefix in different formats, the following concealed tables shows the possibilities. All combinations are possible but not every one is useful.
