'''<big>Purpose and naming:</big>''' [[Wikt:mnemonic|Mnemonically]] ''''T'''emplate '''l'''ist e'''x'''panded'... after <tt>{{tlx|tl}}</tt> '''T'''emplate '''l'''ist' | |||
* This template takes another ''template-name'' and some associated [[w:pipe-trick|pipe-tricked]] [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Parameter#Parameters (numbered) parameters] (or 'pass parameters'), and displays them as an 'example demonstration' of how the ''template-name'' template could be coded, literally. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation. | |||
* '''''Specifics:''''' Up to five pass parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) for the specified template are displayed as 'placeholders', and over 5 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "<small>&#124;</small>''...''"). A keyword parameter can be used, when tagged as a nowiki-keyword: <nowiki>"<nowiki>siz=10<\nowiki>"</nowiki> with each keyword parameter surrounded by <nowiki>"<nowiki>"</nowiki> tags; see ''[[#Examples|Examples]]'' at bottom. For more details, see the [[w:{{TALKPAGENAME}}|this talk]] page. | |||
* '''''Exceptions:''''' If the intended template lists numerous/keyword parameters, then perhaps this template should really ''not'' be used, and just hardcode the usage in double-braces, putting only nowiki-braces <nowiki>"{{"</nowiki> to start, such as: "<nowiki><nowiki>{{</nowiki><\nowiki>Anytemplate |arg1=23 |siz=250px}}". | |||
---- | |||
* If given no additional parameters except ''<code> 'template name' (<nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki>), </code>'' it presents the same as the similar {{tl|Tl}} [[W:macro|macro]] template -- a blue link nested in [[W:brackets|curly-braces]]-- the same as a user would apply the template without parameters, but with a noticably clearer font and spacing on most modern browsers. | |||
:* {{Tlx|Tl|Tl}} display compared to {{Tlx|Tlx|Tl}}: (Tl: {{Tl|Tlx}} versus Tlx: {{Tlx|Tl}}) | |||
* Comparatively, {{Tlx|Tl}} will not take or display additional parameters, and for minor technical reasons, may preferred for mere listing and referencing in long pages involving a lot of template expansions[[W:WP:DPP|1]]. | |||
