Template:PAGESIZE/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:PAGESIZE. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This page in a nutshell: Never write {{PAGESIZE|argument}}. Write {{PAGESIZE:argument}} instead. |
 | This template should have no transclusions. This is because it is a replacement to prevent breakage if editors attempt to invoke the magic word of the same name using a pipe instead of a colon. |
Usage
[edit]The magic word {{PAGESIZE}} is described at Wikipedia:Magic words#Parser functions. An example of its output is:
{{PAGESIZE:Example}}→ 1,457
If placed on this page without arguments:
{{PAGESIZE}}→ 1,681 - in this case the size of Template:PAGESIZE/doc.
This template should never be used, but when someone attempts to use the magic word "{{PAGESIZE}}" with a piped parameter, it will prevent breakage. Parameter 1 will be used as the : parameter, other parameters will be discarded.
Tracking category
