This is the {{tl|tlp}} template.

Here is how this template looks. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:

It works similarly to {{tl|tl}}, but has to be fed one parameter.

See full documentation at {{tl|tl}}.

:{{tlc|tlp|name|parameters}} = {{tlp|name|parameters}}

Features of {{tlp|tlp}}:

* It shows a template name and up to eight parameters.

* It also shows empty parameters. (See examples below.)

* It prevents [[line wrap]]s in its output.

=== Examples ===

<table class="wikitable">

<tr><th>Code<th>Result<th>Comment

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp}} <td>{{tlp}} <td>Shows its own syntax.

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name}} <td>{{tlp|name}} <td>

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|one}} <td>{{tlp|name|one}} <td>

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|one|two}} <td>{{tlp|name|one|two}} <td>

<tr><td><code><nowiki>{{tlp|name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i|j}}</nowiki></code> <td>{{tlp|name|a|b|c|d|e|f|g|h|i}} <td>Shows up to eight parameters. The rest are dropped.

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|||three|four}} <td>{{tlp|name|||three|four}} <td>Also shows empty parameters.

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|||three||}} <td>{{tlp|name|||three||}} <td>Even shows empty parameters that come in the end.

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|2=one=a|3=two=b}} <td>{{tlp|name|one=a|two=b}} <td>Equal signs is a problem, but there is a fix.

<tr><td>{{tlc|tlp|name|3=2=one=a|4=3=two=b}} <td>{{tlp|name|2=one=a|3=two=b}} <td>Use numbered parameters to fix it. Remember to start from 2, since the "name" is number 1.

</table>

If you have equal signs in your template parameters then some find it simpler to code it using <code>&lt;nowiki></code> tags. Here's how to do that. Code to the left and actual rendering to the right:

:<code><nowiki>{{tlp|name|&lt;nowiki>one=a|two=b&lt;/nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> = {{tlp|name|<nowiki>one=a|two=b</nowiki>}}

* {{tl|tld}} – Not linked, several parameters and <tt>teletype</tt> text style.

* {{tl|tlf}} – Not linked, several parameters and normal text style.

* {{tl|tl}} – Template link, no parameters and normal text style.

* {{tl|tlp}} – Template link, several parameters and normal text style.

* {{tl|tlx}} – Template link, several parameters and interwiki links, <tt>teletype</tt> text style.

* {{tl|tn}} – Same as {{tlf|tl}}, but shows the braces as part of the link.
