Purpose

{{Tl}} is used to display a template name as a link. Tl stands for Template link.

Tl can currently handle 8 additional parameters that are simply displayed as shown. There are limits, you can't display and equals sign "=" normally because templates interpret equals signs as thingys that say it's a particular parameter rather than the first or second or third parameter.

note

The use of #if statements is the need for the extra pipe "|" displayed if the parameter is specified, otherwise it displays nothing.

Usage

{{subst:Tl|template name to display}}
{{tl|template name to display}}

Example

Code Result
{{subst:Tl|Center}} {{Center}}
{{tl|Userbox Server|Heroes|Freedom}} {{Userbox Server|Heroes|Freedom}}
