Description

This is a template link with a variable number of example parameters (0–30), which can be used to show example inputs.

Parameters

First parameter

The link to the template. Defaults to the page name (current page name: Tlx)

2nd to 31st parameter

The parameters of the demo template.

To add named parameters, example {{license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text=3rd parameter}}, follow these steps:

1. Write the parameter normally. Example: {{tlx|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text=3rd parameter}}.
2. Then, count how many parameters you have added, so {{t|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text=3rd parameter}}.
   On this example, there are 4 parameters, so prefix 4= on the {{t}} template.
3. So, the code is {{t|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4=text=3rd parameter}}, which results in {{license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text=3rd parameter}}.

Note: Adding named parameters will force you to always prefix the unnamed parameter:

{{tlx|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4=3=3rd parameter|4th parameter}} will not work.

{{tlx|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|4=3=3rd parameter|5=4th parameter}} will work.

You can also use = instead:

{{tlx|license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text{{=}}3rd parameter}} results in {{license|1st parameter|2nd parameter|text=3rd parameter}}

---

The following will only work after all the parameters of the demo template is placed.
Wrong: {{tlx|license|style=plain|<message>}}
Right: {{tlx|license|<message>|style=plain}}

Style (style=)

The style of the {{t}} template. Has 3 styles:

• (none) - encloses the {{t}} template with <code>
• plain - encloses the {{t}} template with <span>

Prefix (prefix=)

A prefix before the template link, useful when instructing the user to add safesubst, or something similar. The output will be similar to: prefix:[[template link]]

Subst (subst=1)

Adds a subst: prefix to the template.

Parameter limit

This template has a parameter limit of 30 items. If you exceed that limit, this will show up:
