The template link template is a simple macro template used to display a template name as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing how the template name would be used in code. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation. A short example is that the code:

{{Tl|Example}}

generates

{{Example}}

More complex variations are described below.

Example

Code	Result
{{Tl|Void}}	{{Void}}
{{Tl2|X1}}	{{X1}}
{{Tl2|SISTER=M:|3x}}	{{3x}}
{{Tl2|SISTER=wikibooks|LANG=de:|WP}}	{{WP}}
{{Tl|1==)}}	{{=)}}
