Template:Tlnc

{{[[Template:please specify the name of a template|]]}}

Documentation

This template is used to display a link to a template in a way that looks like a template call (i.e., inside of double curly-braces: {{}}). The template need not actually exist. This should only be used on talk pages or in template documentation (or help pages, user pages, etc.), not in articles. The template complains about missing input, as seen above (and such calls place the page in Category:Broken template calls).

This template styles the template call as code (like this: {{noop}}). To display the template call as plain text (like this: {{noop}} ), use Template:Tl.

The name of the template is based on the phrase "template link as code".

Usage

• {{tlc|template name}}

Examples

• {{tlc|noop}} ⇒ Template:Tlc
• {{tlc|missing template}} ⇒ Template:Tlc

Note that this template cannot properly display template calls containing parameters, such as:

{{abbr|NOK|Norwegian kroner}}

(That's coming later.)

• {{tl}} — same as this template, but renders the template link as plain text
