ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Template parameter value/doc

Usage

The purpose of this template is to gain the value of a template's parameter (named or numbered) in an article, for usage elsewhere. For example, gaining the value of the |num_episodes= parameter in the {{Infobox television}} template in an article, to use in another article.

This template works with named or numbered parameters; i.e. it can get the first parameter of {{Start date}} (the year). This template is case-sensitive; i.e. setting |Viewers= will not match |viewers=. Make sure that you are listing the article where the template exists, not where it's transcluded to.

Syntax

{{Template parameter value|ARTICLE|TEMPLATE|TEMPLATE-COUNT|PARAMETER|PARAMETER-COUNT}}

Parameters

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
1	Article	The article where the template and value exist. Example: List of Lucifer episodes	Text	Required
2	Template	The template where the value is held in the form of a parameter. Example: Episode table	Text	Required
3	Numbered usage of template	How many usages of the above template are counted. Setting to blank sets the value to 1; do not exclude this parameter. Exclusion means that the third parameter will become the named/numbered parameter, which will cause the template to not work (return blank). Example: 24	Number	Optional setting Required inclusion (see examples above)
4	Parameter	The named/numbered parameter in the template that holds the required value. For a numbered parameter, for example, the 2nd numbered parameter will have an input of 2. Example: OriginalAirDate / 2	Number / Text	Required
5	Numbered usage of parameter	How many usages of the above parameter are counted within the found template. Setting to blank or excluding (exclusion allowed) sets the value to 1. Set to blank or 1 for a numbered parameter. Example: 3	Number	Optional (see examples above)
