'''<big>Purpose and naming:</big>''' [[Wikt:mnemonic|Mnemonically]] ''''T'''emplate '''l'''ist e'''x'''panded'... after <tt>{{tlx|tl}}</tt> '''T'''emplate '''l'''ist'

* This template takes another ''template-name'' and some associated [[w:pipe-trick|pipe-tricked]] [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Parameter#Parameters (numbered) parameters] (or 'pass parameters'), and aggregates them into an 'example demonstration' of how the ''template-name'' template might be used. It's primary use is in instruction and documentation such as this passage.

* Up to five pass parameters (numbered) for the specified template are displayed as 'placeholders', and more parameters are shown as "<tt>|</tt>''...''", for details see the [[w:{{TALKPAGENAME}}|this talk]] page.

----

* If given no additional parameters except ''<code> 'template name' (<nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki>), </code>'' it presents the same as the similar {{tl|Tl}} [[W:macro|macro]] template -- a blue link nested in [[W:brackets|curly-braces]]-- the same as a user would apply the template without parameters, but with a noticably clearer font and spacing on most modern browsers.

:* {{Tlx|Tl|Tl}} display compared to {{Tlx|Tlx|Tl}}: (Tl: {{Tl|Tlx}} versus Tlx: {{Tlx|Tl}})

* Comparatively, {{Tlx|Tl}} will not take or display additional parameters, and for minor technical reasons, may preferred for mere listing and referencing in long pages involving a lot of template expansions[[W:WP:DPP|1]].

* Additionally, Tlx will take a 'named' parameter 'SISTER' to link interwiki to other sister projects such as one of these examples: '|SISTER=W:', 'Tlx|SISTER=M:', 'Tlx|SISTER=Q:', 'Tlx|SISTER=S:', allowing documentation or discourse about a template across interwiki boundaries. Small 'front end' Shell or convience templates {{Tlx|Tlxw}} and {{tlx|Tlxm}} are typing-aid templates available at Meta for automatic substitution in discussions about templates on Wikipedia or Meta.

----

;This usage also applies to interwiki capable template variations:
# {{Tl|Tlxc}} -- which links to templates on Wikimedia Commons (The Commons).
# {{Tl|Tlxm}} -- which links to templates on Meta
# {{Tl|Tlxw}} -- which links to templates on Wikipedia

----

==Documentation==

{{[[Template:{{PAGENAME}}|{{PAGENAME}}]]}}
is a generalization of {{Tlxw|Tl|x}}, {{Tlxw|Tlp|x|y}},
etcetera with arguably better readable
output. This depends on the browser, but too narrow
uses of "'''{'''", "'''|'''", "'''}'''" in conjunction
with links can be hard to read.
{{#ifeq:{{PAGENAME}}|Tlx/doc||
=== Usage ===

:<tt>{{{{PAGENAME}}|template name}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{PAGENAME}}|template name|param}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{PAGENAME}}|template name|1|2|3}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{PAGENAME}}|template name|1|2|3&#124;more}}</tt>
:<tt>{{{{PAGENAME}}|template name|param&#61;value}}</tt>
''Up to three placeholders for parameters of the specified template''}}

=== Examples ===
{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Wikipedia||
{{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Meta||
;Note: On the source sister projects, en.wikipedia and Meta, '''X0, X1, X2,..., X9 are sandbox templates''' for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space. An auto-cleansing software facility exists that might be used to duplicate the facility on other Sister projects.
