== Usage ==
This template is for giving examples of [[Wikipedia:Template messages|template]] parameter source code (useful in template documentation and talk page discussions of template code). It must have one or two parameters itself. The first parameter is the name of the example parameter to display (this may be ''empty'', but it must be ''present''), and the second (optional) parameter is a value for the first example parameter or, if the first {{tlx|para}} parameter is empty, an unnamed example parameter.
=== Examples ===
{| class="wikitable"
! Code
! Result
! Notes
|-
| {{tlx|para|name}}
| {{para|name}}
|
|-
| {{tlx|para|title|<var>book title</var>}}
| {{para|title|<var>book title</var>}}
|
|-
| {{tlx|para|2=<span style="font-size:1pt;"> </span>|3=section}}
| {{para||section}}
| For [[Help:Templates#Parameters|unnamed parameters]]; note empty first parameter in the code
|-
| {{tlx|para|<var>parameter</var>|<var>value</var>}}
| {{para|<var>parameter</var>|<var>value</var>}}
|
|}
When using literal, pre-specified values, simply provide the value (as in the third example above). When illustrating hypothetical, variable, or user-definable values, use <code><nowiki><var>value</var></nowiki></code> (as in the second example above). The same should be done for non-literal, example parameters (fourth example above).
== See also ==
See also the three tables below; they describe the family of approximately forty templates built for talking about templates.
Here are some related templates or subjects not found in the tables:
* {{tl|Param}}
* {{tl|Parameter}}
* {{tl|tag}}, for providing a similar service, but for HTML tags<!--
This area creates a more user friendly gap to clearly isolate area for adding See also entries.
