Template documentation

This template is used on 3,000,000+ pages, and is the single most used template on the English Wikipedia. To avoid any disruptions and to save server load, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. As a courtesy to other users, please discuss any changes at the talk page before implementing them. |
This is the {{!}} meta-template.
This is an auxiliary template allowing to encode "|"
within template parameters. It is necessary if the character is used in wiki table syntax, or if the parameter is automatically wikilinked and you wish to use a pipe to specify different link text from the target page name. In other cases it is better to use "|".
This template cannot be used for putting the character as text in a wiki table; in that case, again, "|" can be used.
Note that no special template is needed for "!" (exclamation mark).
This is a high risk template, and it usually cannot be substituted (see conditions for substing on the talk page).

- {{pipe}} - Note that this one looks like {{!}} but has a very different meaning for the MediaWiki parser and thus has different functionality.
