This is a documentation subpage for 'Template:Template link general'.
It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.
Page Module:Shortcut/styles.css has no content.
This template, often abbreviated as Template:Tlf, is used to provide stylized formatting to template displays without actually using the template itself.
Parameters
With the exception of Template:Mono, the named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default in most cases) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc.). They may be included in any order (see Examples below). Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see the main table for all alternate options.
