HTML attribute (usually a monospaced font), like for {{tlc}}nolink=yes
: Don't insert a template link, like for {{tlf}}, {{tld}}, and {{tlc}}anypage=yes
: Allow linking to arbitrary page (not just template)braceinside=yes
: Put braces inside the link, like for {{tn}}subst=yes
: Add asubst:
prefix, like for {{tls}}alttext=FOO

[edit]- 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.
