Notes

edit

Naming scheme:

• o = double opening braces
• c = double closing braces

This template combines the functionality of templates listed in the Expansion demo templates on Commons with a single o and c (no nesting), but with some restrictions.

In the case of demonstrating a template, values of unnamed parameters of this template are trimmed, so Template:Xpdoc cannot be used for demonstrating the effect of spaces at the start or end of an unnamed parameter.

Examples

edit

{{xpdoc|ISOdate|2009-04-03}} produces: "{{ISOdate|2009-04-03}} → 3 April 2009(2009-04-03)".
