Usage
[edit]{{Tab}} expects the |link= and |tab= parameters to be passed to it. If the current page title matches the value of |link=, then the tab will be styled differently.
If the |freeform= parameter's value is non-null, then the |tab= value is passed-through unchanged as the content of the table cell, rather than the default behavior which places the values from the |link= and |tab= parameters within the standard wikilink syntax (as [[{{{link}}}|{{{tab}}}]]).
TemplateData
[edit]This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Tab in articles based on its TemplateData.
