Usage

Echo the first argument to the template through the rendering engine.

This is occasionally useful as a metatemplate. For example:

  • To break up certain constructs that otherwise have special meaning in wikitext.
    • {{1x|~~}}{{1x|~~}} → ~~~~
  • To strip white space from a template parameter.
    • a{{{1| x }}}b → a x b
    • a{{1x|1= {{{1| x }}} }}b → axb
  • To conditionally hide or show some content by choosing which template takes a parameter.
    • {{ {{#if: {{{x}}} | 2x | 1x }} | hello }} → hello hello
    • {{ {{#if: {{{x}}} | void | 1x }} | hello }}
