Template:Template link with linked braces/doc

This template is used similarly to Template:Template link to show the name of a template with the pairs of open and close braces around it. But this variant makes the inner braces part of the link, whereas Template:Template link does not make the braces part of the link. This is to allow easier clicking of very short template names. The "Tn" name is short for Template name.

Usage

{{tn|template_name}}

Example with comparison

{{tn|!}}	produces: {{!}}
{{tl|!}}	produces: {{!}}
