Template:Void/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Void. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template does nothing.
More exactly, it outputs the null string. It's useful for programming advanced templates.
It often is used within a template to the right of an equals sign.
Alternatives
[edit]It's also possible to use {{ns:0}} instead of {{void}}. Attackers could manipulate {{void}} but not {{ ns:0 }}, the empty/void/null string for the main namespace.
Some magic words like __END__ might also have the desired effect of doing nothing.

[edit]- {{w:tiw|voidd}} - can be used for monitoring parameter usage
- {{w:tiw|voidi}} - attempted alternative for voidd, does not seem to have the desired effect
