This template has a sandbox (edit) for editors to experiment.
This template is used on 900,000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
The template link template is a simple macro template used to display a template name as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing how the template name would be used in code. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation. A short example is that the code:
{{tl|example}}
- generates
- {{example}}
More complex variations are described below.

{{tl2}} differs in that it displays an arguably clearer result like {{tlx}}, and also takes the named parameters 'SISTER=xx' and 'LANG=ll', so that it may also be used to list and link to templates on other English and non-English language sister projects.
{{tlx}} displays with the same enhanced presentation, and also expands several 'placeholder' parameters to generate a sample template call.
Usage
{{Tl|template name to display}} and {{Tl2|template name to display}} -- local link, just like Tl. or {{Tl2|SISTER=V:|template name to display}} -- displays a template on Wikiversity or {{Tl2|LANG=fr.|SISTER=wikisource|template name to display}} -- displays a template on the French Wikisource sister project.
Example
Code | Result |
---|---|
{{Tl|x0}}
|
{{x0}} |
{{Tl2|x1}}
|
{{x1}} |
{{Tl2|SISTER=M:|3x}}
|
{{3x}} |
{{Tl2|SISTER=wikibooks|LANG=de:|WP}}
|
{{WP}} |
