This is the {{tlTl|tlpTlp}} or '''template link with parameters''' template.

It can be used in documentation and talk page discussions to show how a template name would be used in code.

Line 9:

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

:{{tlcTlc|tlpTlp|name|parameters}} = {{tlpTlp|name|parameters}}

Features of {{tlpTlp|tlpTlp}}:

* It shows a template name with a link to that template.

* It shows up to eight parameters.

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

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

* It uses normal text style. (While for instance {{tlxTlx|tlxTlx}} uses <tt>teletype</tt> text style.)

This template belongs to a whole family of similar templates. See the [[#See also|see also]] section below for some of them. For instance, when writing documentation you might want to avoid a lot of unnecessary links, since it decreases readability. Then on the first occurrence of a template name use {{tlTl|tlTl}}, {{tlpTlp|tlpTlp}} or {{tlxTlx|tlxTlx}}, and then use {{tlfTlf|tlfTlf}}, {{tldTld|tldTld}} or {{tlcTlc|tlcTlc}}.
