Template:!/doc
| This is a documentation subpage for Template:!. It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| This template is used on 9,000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to the template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This is an auxiliary template allowing to encode "|" within template parameters. It is necessary if the character is used in wiki table syntax. In other cases it is better to use "|".
This template cannot be used for putting the character as text in a wiki table; in that case, again, "|" can be used.
Note that no special template is needed for "!" (exclamation mark).
This is a high risk template, and it cannot be substituted.
