The template calls a specified template several times, where one parameter takes each of a list of values; in addition to the variable parameter, for up to 4 parameters a fixed value can be specified.

Usage

{{for
|1 =
|call =
|pc1n =
|pc1v =
|pc2n =
|pc2v =
|pc3n =
|pc3v =
|pc4n =
|pc4v =
|pv =
|prefix =
|postfix =
|2 =
}}

Template parameters

Parameter	Description		Default	Status

`pc1n`	constant parameter 1	The first constant parameter’s name	empty	optional
`pc1v`	constant value 1	The first constant parameter’s value	empty	optional
`pc2n`	constant parameter 2	The second constant parameter’s name	empty	optional
`pc2v`	constant value 2	The second constant parameter’s value	empty	optional
`pc3n`	constant parameter 3	The third constant parameter’s name	empty	optional
`pc3v`	constant value 3	The third constant parameter’s value	empty	optional
`pc4n`	constant parameter 4	The fourth constant parameter’s name	empty	optional
