Docamaideadh - Documentation

{{Tl}} and {{Tl2}} are simple macro templates used to display a template name as a link. Tl stands for Template link.

Tl2 differs in that it displays an arguably clearer result like {{Tlx}}, and also like 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.

related: {{Tlx}} displays with the same enhanced presentation, and also expands several 'placeholder' parameters to generate a sample template call.

Ùsaid - 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.

General-purpose formatting

Comparison of template-linking templates according to their style
	Link style →	Linked	Unlinked	Linked with subst	Linked including braces	Linked with alternative text
Text style ↓	↓ `{{Tlg}}` options¹ →	DEFAULT	nolink=yes	subst=yes	braceinside=yes	alttext=Foo 2=Foo
normal	DEFAULT	`{{Tlg}}`¹ `{{Tl}}` `{{Tlp}}`² `{{Tlu}}`³	`{{Tlf}}`²	`{{Tls}}` `{{Tlsp}}` `{{Tlsu}}`³	`{{Tn}}`	`{{Tla}}`
`code`	code=yes	`{{Tl2}}` `{{Tlx}}` `{{Tlxu}}`³	`{{Tlc}}`² `{{Tld}}`² `{{Tnull}}`	`{{Tlxs}}`	N/A
monospace `kbd`	plaincode=yes⁴ kbd=yes⁵	`{{Tltt}}`⁵ `{{Tltt2}}`⁵	N/A	`{{Tltss}}`⁶	N/A
bold	bold=yes	`{{Tlb}}`	N/A
`bold+code`	code=yes	`{{Tlxb}}`
`italic+code`	code=yes	`{{Tlxi}}`
¹ `{{Tlg}}` is the most general, allowing any combination of text style and/or link style options. ² Prevents wrapping of text by placing it inside `<span class="Nowrap">...</span>` tags. ³ Allows links to templates in any namespace. ⁴ `{{Tlg\|plaincode=yes}}` uses `<code style="border:none; background-color:transparent;">...</code>`. ⁵ Displays monospaced font using `<kbd>...</kbd>` tags (changed from `<tt>...</tt>` for HTML 5 compliance). ⁶ Displays monospaced font using `<span style="font-family:monospace;">...</span>`.
