This template is nearly identical to Template:Tl, except that it is intended for all namespace transclusions, and you can include parameters—as long as you use {{=}} signs or =
in place of equal signs. For example, you can enter a subpage in your user space ({{User:Example/Talk message|param1=y|param2|etc.}}) or in a WikiProject ({{Wikipedia:WikiProject Songs/Unreferenced BLPs|param1=y|param2|etc.}}).
