This is a really good idea! — Ambush Commander( Talk) 13:54, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
I suggest this template to be changed to
{{[[Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]}}
This way it won't break things if it's subst'd (&
added in source here so it's displayed right) →

I think not it would also be better to change it to
{{[[Template:{{{1}}}|{{lcfirst:{{{1}}}}}]]}}
i.e. add a lcfirst on the name so it will always shown with the first letter as lower case (As I think most people writes it when they call the template) → Aza Toth 17:11, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
I'd leave it be for now. There may be a certain "suprise factor" when someone uses this and it doesn't display the uppercase as they'd expect. -- Netoholic @ 22:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
I've been looking for a while to find the matching template to the one used on the french Wikipédia for showing a template's syntax while linking to it in the form {{Template}}. It's not exactly the same but since it's used for the same purposes in about the same way, I think the following should be added to the current template :
<!-- Interwiki Link --> [[fr:Modèle:M]]
Interwiki linkage of the most commonly used templates really facilitates the users' ability to adapt quickly the syntax on any local wiki... : )

Template {{ T1}} redirects to this template. Is this intentional, considering the history of T1 indicates that it's completely unrelated? -- TheParanoidOne 10:42, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Hi guys,
anyone taking care to make spacing consistent among Tl, Tl1, Tlx and others? If you look, for instance, at the first column in
Numbers & Variables you'll see that {{ User pi digits|500 }}
is the only code snippet in which additional spaces exist between the braces and their content. --

{{
Tl}}
and {{
Tlp}}
are protected. If a consistent look is important you could use either
Template:Tlx(
talk
links
history) also for one or no parameter, or only {{
Tl}} (no parameter) and {{
Tlp|xyz}} - then you'd glue together more parameters by a pipe symbol in numeric al form: |. --
