To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to it should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.
Basic use
(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)
{{tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|twentieth}}produces:{{Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|twentieth}}
Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with {{=}}:
{{tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|twentieth}}produces:{{Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|twentieth}}
For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use <nowiki>...</nowiki> thus:
Purpose and naming
Mnemonically, template link expanded (after template link).
This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.
Up to 20 of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 20 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical bar (pipe) symbol, as in |. A keyword parameter can be used with equals code = or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "<nowiki>size=10</nowiki>" or all parameters as a string in "<nowiki>" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page. If you use 21 or more parameters, all after the 20th will be replaced with a single |... at the end of the parameter list.
- Exceptions
If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with <code><nowiki>. For example:
<code>.<nowiki>{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|other parameters...}}</nowiki></code>
If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with <pre>...</pre>.
Parameters
- If the only parameter supplied is
{{{1}}}, i.e. a template's name,{{tlx}}'s output is the same as{{tl}}– i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
{{tl}}will also not take nor display additional parameters.
- Named parameters
|subst=
- Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string
subst:linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example,{{tlx|Welcome|subst=Y}}produces:{{subst:Welcome}}. This is similar to the action of the{{tlxs}}template:{{tlxs|Welcome}}produces: {{subst:Welcome}}.
|SISTER=
- For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as:
|SISTER=M:(Meta),|SISTER=Q:(WikiQuote),|SISTER=S:(WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.
|LANG=
- For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as:
|LANG=de:(German),|LANG=sv:(Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.
Documentation
{{Tlx}} is a generalization of {{tl}}, {{tlp}} etc., with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as " { ", " | ", " } " and links can be hard to read when not monospaced (and hard to click on; for uses like {{!}}, see {{tlw}}, which makes the click target bigger).
Usage
{{tlx|Templatename}}{{tlx|Templatename|param}}{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|more}}{{tlx|Templatename|param=value}}
There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.
Examples
- Note
- At the en.wikipedia and Meta sites, X0, X1, X2, ... X9 are sandbox templates for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space. An auto-cleansing software facility exists that might be used to duplicate the facility on other sister projects.

{{tlx|x2| |two}} | {{x2| |two}} | ... is also okay |
{{tlx|x2| | {{x2||two}} | <nowiki /> handles the space |
{{tlx|x2| | two}} | {{x2| | two}} | | is okay |
{{tlx|x2| {{!}} two}} | {{x2 | | two}} | {{!}} is dubious |
{{tlx|x2|2=|3=two}} | {{x2|two}} | empty really doesn't work |
{{tlx|x2|2=one|two}} | {{x2|two}} | "two" overrides "2=one" |
{{tlx|x2|3=two|2=one}} | {{x2|one|two}} | irregular parameter order is okay |
- Unlimited parameters as one
