{{tlx|Tlx|Template|first parameter|second|third|fourth|...|eight|ninth|tenth|eleventh}} → {{Tlx|Template|first parameter|second|third|fourth|fifth|sixth|seventh|eight|ninth|tenth|eleventh}}

== Purpose and naming ==
[[Wikt:mnemonic|Mnemonically]] ''''T'''emplate '''l'''ink e'''x'''panded'. After <tt>{{tlx|Tl}}</tt> '''T'''emplate '''l'''ink'.

* This template takes another ''template-name'' and some associated [[Help:Pipe trick|pipe-tricked]] [[m: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 "&#124;''...''"). A keyword parameter can be used, when tagged as a nowiki-keyword: <nowiki>"<nowiki>size=10<\nowiki>"</nowiki> with each keyword parameter surrounded by <nowiki>"<nowiki>"</nowiki> tags; see ''[[#Examples|Examples]]'' at bottom. For more details, see [[{{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 with <code><nowiki><code><nowiki></nowiki></code>, for example: <code><nowiki><code><nowiki>{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|</nowiki><var>other parameters...</var><nowiki>}}</nowiki></code></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 <code><nowiki><pre>...</pre></nowiki></code>.

----

* If given no additional parameters except ''<code> 'template name' (<nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki>), </code>'' it presents the same as the similar {{tl|Tl}} [[macro]] template -- a blue link nested in [[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|Tl}} versus Tlx: {{Tlx|Tl}})

* Comparatively, {{Tlx|Tl}} will not take or display additional parameters, and for minor technical reasons, may be preferred for mere listing and referencing in long pages involving a lot of template expansions.

* {{tlx|Tlx}} has a named parameter ''subst''. Setting this parameter to any string of length 1 or greater will place the string "subst:" before the template name, linked to [[Help:Substitution]]. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example {{tlx|Tlx|Welcome|<nowiki>subst=Y</nowiki>}} will display {{Tlx|Welcome|subst=Y}}.

* Additionally, Tlx will take a 'named' parameter 'SISTER' to link interwiki to other sister projects such as one of these examples: '|SISTER=W:', 'Tlx|SISTER=M:', 'Tlx|SISTER=Q:', 'Tlx|SISTER=S:', allowing documentation or discourse about a template across interwiki boundaries. Small 'front end' Shell or convience templates {{Tlx|Tlxw}} and {{tlx|Tlxm}} are typing-aid templates available at Meta for automatic substitution in discussions about templates on Wikipedia or Meta.

----

;This usage also applies to interwiki capable template variations:
# {{Tl|Tlxc}} -- which links to templates on Wikimedia Commons (The Commons).
# {{Tl|Tlxm}} -- which links to templates on Meta
# {{Tl|Tlxw}} -- which links to templates on Wikipedia

----

== Documentation ==

{{[[Template:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|{{BASEPAGENAME}}]]}}
is a generalization of {{Tl|Tl|x}}, {{Tl|Tlp|x|y}},
etcetera with arguably better readable
output. This depends on the browser, but too narrow
uses of "'''{'''", "'''|'''", "'''}'''" in conjunction
with links can be hard to read.

=== Usage ===

:<tt>{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}{{!}}template name}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}{{!}}template name{{!}}param}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}{{!}}template name{{!}}1{{!}}2{{!}}3}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}{{!}}template name{{!}}1{{!}}2{{!}}3&#124;more}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}{{!}}template name{{!}}param&#61;value}}</tt>
''Up to three placeholders for parameters of the specified template''

=== Examples ===
{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Wikipedia||
{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Meta||
;Note: On the source sister projects, en.wikipedia and Meta, '''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.
