- Description
- This template is used to insert descriptions on template pages.
- Syntax
- Type <noinclude>
{{documentation}}</noinclude> at the end of the template page.
General usage[]
On the Template page[]
Template code<includeonly>Any categories to be inserted into articles by the template</includeonly><noinclude>
{{documentation}}</noinclude>
Note that, depending on the template, you may need to add a clear or complete a table/div just before {{documentation}} is inserted (within the noinclude tags).
The line break is also useful as it helps prevent the documentation template "running into" previous code.
On the Template/doc page[]
;Description
:This template is used to do something.
;Syntax
:Type {{tl|templatename}} somewhere.
;Sample output
:<nowiki>{{templatename|foo}}</nowiki> gives...

<includeonly>Any categories for the template itself</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Documentation templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]</noinclude>
Use any or all of the above description/syntax/sample output sections. You may also want to add "see also" or further usage information sections.
