:Having another look, I see that it seems to tell me I need to add "required" and set it to "false". Do I really? And I've realised that one reason the example is particularly confusing is that "string" is both a parameter name and a type! There might be a clearer example perhaps?

::Still not going well: I tried adding {{tl|EW charity}} to an article, couldn't see the parameters I'd added in TemplateData 4 days ago. Tried choosing "EW charity/doc" from the dropdown menu... and the templates appeared with their descriptions... but continuing transcludes the documentation page into the article. Something is going wrong: either the documentation is wrong or I'm misreading it. Could someone have a look at [[Template:Genukiwry/doc]] and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

:::There is a long delay between changing the template data section and it actually being read by the Visual Editor. I waited nearly a week for {{t1|Coord}} to be updated. You may find it updates quicker if you do a [[WP:NULL]] edit to the main template page (not the doc page).--[[User:Salix alba|Salix]] ([[User talk:Salix alba|talk]]): 22:55, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
