: {{tc|tag|''tagname'' [|''type''] [|content&#61;''text''] [|attribs&#61;''attributes and values'']}}
This template provides a quick way to mention an [[XML]]/[[HTML]]-style tag in a preformatted way. Mainly used in discussion/help pages.

==Parameters==
Required parameters shown in '''''bold italics'''''.

; {{para|first unnamed}} {{nobold|&nbsp;(''tagname'' above)}} : The XML/HTML tag's name (e.g. {{mono|100%|code}}, {{mono|100%|ref}}).
; {{para|second unnamed}} {{nobold|&nbsp;(''type'' above)}} : To indicate which of the tag's types is/are presented:
:; <kbd>p</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>pair</kbd>) ''(default)'' : A matching pair of open/start and close/end tags (e.g. {{tag|div|pair}}).<br/>To suppress the ellipsis ("...") between the tags, add an empty {{para|content}} parameter.
:; <kbd>o</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>open</kbd>) : An open/start tag (e.g. {{tag|span|open}}).
:; <kbd>c</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>close</kbd>) : A close/end tag (e.g. {{tag|span|close}}).
:; <kbd>e</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>empty</kbd>) &nbsp;or &nbsp;<kbd>s</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>single</kbd>) &nbsp;or &nbsp;<kbd>v</kbd> &nbsp;(<kbd>void</kbd>) : An empty element, formed with a single self-terminating tag (e.g. {{tag|hr|single}}); in HTML5 these are now known as "void" elements, though "empty" is the more common term.
; {{para|content}} : Text to place between open/start and close/end tags.
; {{para|attribs}} : Attributes and values to be included as part of an open/start tag (this parameter can also be called {{para|params}}).
; {{para|wrap|yes}} : Disable nowrap for long samples.
; {{para|link|yes}} : Link to the element's entry at the [[HTML element]] article, e.g.{{colon}}<br />{{in5}}{{tnull|Tag|del|link{{=}}y}}<br />produces:<br />{{in5}}{{Tag|del|link=y}}<br />This is {{em|only}} for HTML elements; the page is hard-coded, so it cannot be used for, e.g., XML elements from a particular schema. If desired, a feature for specifying the link page can be added.
