This template adds a formatted MediaWiki parser or extension tag that links to the help or extension page. This template is similar to {{tl|tag}}, but it links the tag and defaults to open.

===Parser and extension tags===
<section begin="xtag" />{{Xtag/list}}<section end="xtag" />

===Parameters===
* '''first parameter''' ''(mandatory)'':  the name of the HTML tag
* '''second parameter''': what type of tag to display:
** <code>p</code> or <code>pair</code>:  display a matched pair of open-and-close tags
*** To suppress the ellipsis which appears between the tags, add an empty {{para|content}} parameter
** <code>o</code> or <code>open</code> ''(default)'':  display only the opening tag of an open-and-close pair
** <code>c</code> or <code>close</code>: display only the closing tag of an open-and-close pair
** <code>s</code> or <code>single</code>: display a single tag
* '''content=''' the text content of the tags
* '''params=''' any parameters to be included in the opening tag

====Examples====
{{markup
|<nowiki>{{xtag|nowiki}}</nowiki>
|{{xtag|nowiki}}
|<nowiki>{{xtag|nowiki|s}}</nowiki>}
|{{xtag|nowiki|s}}
}}

<code><nowiki>{{xtag|syntaxhighlight|p|params=inline lang="text"}}</nowiki> </code>&rarr;<br />
