Documentation

…

The name of this template is based on the phrase "template call with parameter names".

This template is used on a great many pages. Making any changes to it will cause lots of jobs to be added to the processing queue.

Usage

• {{tc-names|param 1 name|param 2 name|…}}
• {{tc-names|param 1 name|param 2 name|…|add=|sp=}}

Up to 19 parameters can be documented using this template. If you need more, or if you want to tack on additional parameters of a different type, you can use add with .

Setting sp to any true value adds space before each vertical bar (except the first one).

Examples

• {{tc-names}} ⇒ {{}}
• {{tc-names|}} ⇒ {{}}
• {{tc-names|xl}} ⇒ {{xl}}
• {{tc-names|xl|}} ⇒ {{xl}}
• {{tc-names|xl|url|linktext|site|icon|accessed}} ⇒ {{xl|url=|linktext=|site=|icon=|accessed=}}
• {{tc-names|xl|url|linktext|site|icon|accessed|sp=y}} ⇒ {{xl|url= |linktext= |site= |icon= |accessed=}}

Obviously, the first four examples are not very useful; they're just here for "completeness".

Alias

• {{tc-name}}
