Please do not substitute this template. |
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Always substitute. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{Always substitute}} produces the following notice:
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:foo}}). |
(but {{Always substitute}} itself should not be substituted.)
Usage[edit]
{{Always substitute}}
{{Always substitute}} should be placed on the documentation subpage of any template that requires substitution rather than transclusion (i.e. not on the template's own page itself).
Pages that include {{Always substitute}} are added to Category:Substituted templates.
Parameters[edit]
|auto=
- If set as "yes", the template to which the notice refers will be subst:ed automatically unless the
|demo=yes
parameter is set. The notice is amended to state this. Default is "no". Setting this parameter to "yes" places the template in Category:Templates to be automatically substituted;
|alt=
- Use to set an alternate and transcludable name for the template.
