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

Parser and extension tags

For a machine-generated list, see Special:Version#mw-version-parser-extensiontags. It may include tags not documented here.

Parser tags
<gallery>, <includeonly>, <noinclude>, <nowiki>, <onlyinclude>, <pre>
Extension tags
<categorytree>, <charinsert>, <chem> (alias <ce>), <graph>, <hiero>, <imagemap>, <indicator>, <inputbox>, <mapframe>, <maplink>, <math>, <math chem>, <poem>, <ref>, <references>, <score>, <section>, <syntaxhighlight> (alias <source>), <templatedata>, <templatestyles>, <timeline>

Parameters

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