<templatedata>
Formats [X]HTML tags; can add content, choose opening, closing, or self-closing

[edit]
Templates producing utility links for a given template (Hatnote used here as example)
Code example Effect
{{lt|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
{{lts|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote(edit talk links history)
{{t links|Hatnote}} {{Hatnote}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test)
{{tfd links|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
{{tetl|Hatnote}} {{Hatnote}}
links talk edit
{{tsetl|Hatnote}} {{subst:Hatnote}}
 links talk edit
{{ti|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (talk · links · edit)
{{tic|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (talk links edit)
{{tim|Hatnote}} m:Template:Hatnote (backlinks edit)
{{tiw|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (backlinks edit)
{{tlt|Hatnote}} {{Hatnote}} (talk)
{{ttl|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (links, talk)
{{twlh|Hatnote}} Template:Hatnote (links, talk)
  • {{tlc}} – template link code – shows template code w/o link (see {{WRMS species}} example below). This breaks with "="; use {{tlx}} to show "="!
  • {{tn}} – template link, with the inner braces being part of the link, to increase the 'clickable footprint'
  • {{tlx|para1|para2|para3|4=para4|anotherparam=value}} – best for displaying "=", but need to use absolute field positions (e.g. "4=year=2012").

Redirect templates

[edit]
  • {{R alt}}
  • {{R from alt cap}}
  • {{R from incorrect name}}
  • {{R from incorrect punctuation}}
  • {{R from plural}}
  • {{R to plural}}
  • {{R from alternative scientific name}} – synonym, redirecting to preferred. (printworthy)
  • {{R from scientific name}} – to common name (printworthy)
  • {{R from monotypic taxon}} – Ex: When a genus has only one species, should redirect from genus to species. (printworthy)
  • {{R to monotypic taxon}} – Redirecting to monotypic taxon from its only member (e.g. species to genus). (printworthy)
