Template:PAGENAMEBASE

{{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|PAGENAMEBASE|%s+%b()$||1|false}}

Usage

This template returns the current Template:Tld minus (text in parentheses) or the final set of parentheses where more than one set exist.

e.g. {{PAGENAMEBASE}} on page Chiton (genus) returns {{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|Chiton (genus)|%s+%b()$||1|false}}

on Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) (album) returns {{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) (album)|%s+%b()$||1|false}}

on Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) returns {{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)|%s+%b()$||1|false}}

on Stadion der Freundschaft (Frankfurt (Oder)) returns {{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|Stadion der Freundschaft (Frankfurt (Oder))|%s+%b()$||1|false}}

Can also pass an optional page parameter:

Template:Tlc → "{{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|foo (bar)|%s+%b()$||1|false}}"
Template:Tlc → "{{safesubst:#Invoke:String|replace|foo bar|%s+%b()$||1|false}}"

It is not to be confused with Template:Tld, which is a magic word that strips subpages, not parentheses.
