This template works with named or numbered parameters; i.e. it can get the first parameter of {{tl|Start date}} (the year). This template is case-sensitive; i.e. setting {{para|Viewers}} will not match {{para|viewers}}. Make sure that you are listing the article where the template exists, not where it's transcluded to.

=== Basic Syntax ===

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|ARTICLE|TEMPLATE|TEMPLATE-COUNT|PARAMETER|PARAMETER-COUNT}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

=== Examples ===

; 24th usage of |OriginalAirDate= in the 3rd usage of {<nowiki />{Episode table}} in [[List of Lucifer episodes]]

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|List of Lucifer episodes|Episode table|3|OriginalAirDate|24}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

: {{Template parameter value|List of Lucifer episodes|Episode table|3|OriginalAirDate|24}}

; 2nd usage of |archiveurl= in the 1st usage of {<nowiki />{Series overview}} in [[List of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes]]

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|List of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes|Series overview||archiveurlarchive-url|2}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

: {{Template parameter value|List of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes|Series overview||archiveurlarchive-url|2}}

; 1st usage of |LineColor= in the 2nd usage of {<nowiki />{Episode list/sublist}} in [[Vikings (season 4)]]

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|Vikings (season 4)|Episode list/sublist|2|LineColor}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

: {{Template parameter value|Vikings (season 4)|Episode list/sublist|2|LineColor}}

; 1st usage of |num_episodes= in the 1st usage of {<nowiki />{Infobox television}} in [[12 Monkeys (TV series)]]

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|12 Monkeys (TV series)|Infobox television||num_episodes}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

: {{Template parameter value|12 Monkeys (TV series)|Infobox television||num_episodes}}

; 3rd parameter in the 8th usage of {<nowiki />{Start date}} in [[The Big Bang Theory]]

: <code><nowikisyntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|The Big Bang Theory|Start date|8|3}}</nowiki></codesyntaxhighlight>

: {{Template parameter value|The Big Bang Theory|Start date|8|3}}

; 1st parameter in the last usage of {<nowiki />{date tabke sorting}} in [[List of Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches]]

== Parameters==

: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{Template parameter value|List of Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches|date table sorting|-1|1}}</syntaxhighlight>
