Template Documentation:
Note: The template above might be broken without the parameters; this is normal.
Edit this template for the documentation (How does this work?)
Editors can experiment with this template's sandbox and testcases.

This is a version of Template:Documentation customized for Templates Wiki and so not designed to be copied to other wikis.

It acts identically to the usual Template:Documentation - and should be treated identically - except for a few particular cases.

  • content = should the template have just a short blurb for documentation and not need a new page for it.
  • installonly = for documentation templates
  • If the template should transclude a documentation page other than its /doc subpage, use {{Documentation|documentation page}}.
    You may also use {{Documentation|content=documentation goes here}} to include documentation without a subpage at all.
  • If the template should be interlanguage linked but at a different name, use {{Documentation|fr=French name|ja=Japanese name|tr=Turkish name|zh=Chinese name}}.
    You might instead create a redirect on the foreign-language wiki from the name used on this wiki to theirs.
  • SPW
    • SPW=is not relevant - The template (such as this one) are not relevant to wikis other than Templates Wiki.
    • SPW=starter - The wikis after created on March 11, 2020 by default.
  • dep1=dep2=dep3=dep4= to name up to four dependency templates (include Template: prefix, no need to name /doc pages).

Installation Instructions
This template should not be copied, because it is probably not relevant to wikis other than Templates Wiki. You probably don't want to copy this template to your wiki. For a similar template intended to be copied, see Template:Documentation (copy).
