TheThis is the {{tl|talkspace detect}} meta-template.

It helps other templates detect what type of page they are on. It detects and groups all the different [[Wikipedia:Namespace#Enumeration|talkspaces]] used on Wikipedia into several types:

:'''main''' = Defines the output if the template is located on main/article talkspace; aka ''Talk:''.

:'''user''', '''wikipedia''', '''file''', '''mediawiki''', '''template''', '''help''', '''category''' and '''portal''' = Defines the output if the template is located on the specified talkspaces; aka ''User talk:'', ''Wikipedia talk:'', ''File talk:'', etc.

:'''default''' = Defines the output if the template is located on any talkspaces that were not defined as a parameter into this meta-template.

:'''other''' = Defines the output if the template is located on any namespacessubject space (not the associated talkspace).

=== Usage ===

Line 17 ⟶ 19:

| main = Article talk page text

| user = User talk page text

| default = Text for all other namespace talk pagestalkspaces

| other = Text for all namespacessubject spaces

}}

</pre>

By using an empty parameter you can make it so thethis template doesn't render anything for some specific page type. Like this:

<pre>

{{talkspace detect

| main =

| default = Text for all other namespace talk pagestalkspaces

}}

</pre>
