The {{T}} template creates a formatted link to a Template.
The T template creates a formatted link to a template and surrounds it with braces ({{...}}) included in the link label.

Usage

Template parameters

Parameter	Description	Default	Status
`1`	template name (any namespace is ignored)	T	optional
`2`	display name (displayed as-it-is)	parameter 1	optional
`3` lang	interwiki language code (ISO 639), if the template is in another Wikipedia can also be specified with `lang=`	empty	optional
`4`	+/- to precede the template name with the namespace `Template:` `+` (plus sign) to make `Template:` a part of the link, `-` (minus sign) to precede `Template:` as plain text. The +/- parameter can as well be specified with parameter 2 or 3; (when both signs are specified, "+" has precedence).	empty	optional
`incl` i	`i` or `incl` is a one-digit formatting option: 0: none of the brackets are part of the link 1: the inner brackets are part of the link 2: both brackets are part of the link 3: like `i=2`, with monospace font 4: like `i=0` but with the name in teletype style 5: like `i=1` but with the name in teletype style 6: like `i=2` but with the name in teletype style 8: without surrounding brackets 9: like `i=8` but with the name in teletype style large (font-size:128%)	2	optional
`code`	any value, for a surrounding `<code>` tag (like {{Tl2}}). With `code=tt` also the surrounding brackets are in teletype style.	empty	optional
`link`	returns plain text instead of a link when set to `link=no`	empty	optional
`case`	for formatting of the namespace prefix: `case=l` lowercase display "template" instead of "Template" `case=i` internationalized display, in general a link `case=n` internationalized display, without linking it	empty	optional
`i18n`	another language than `{{int:lang}}` for namespace translation (when `case=i` or `case=n`)	en	optional
`parm`	to display templates parameters (like {{Tlx}}) Usage e.g. `parm=template name` or `parm=1=template name` or `parm=\|1=\|2=\|code=y`" gives "`\|1=\|2=\|code=y`". For a better appearing and easier to format explanatory, use the meta template {{`Tle`}}.	empty	optional
`full`	expanded display: Template:{{Example}} (like {{Lts}}) request this expansion with either `full=5` or `5=full`.	empty	optional

Additional information

The template is intended to be used in the following namespaces: all namespaces

The template is intended to be used by the following user groups: all users

Localization

This template is not intended to be localized.

The template does not generate any localizable text;
with + or - always the namespace in English: "Template" is displayed;
only in combination with case=i or case=n the namespace can be translated using the {{LangSwitch}} construct (according to i18n).
