* This template takes another ''template-name'' and some associated [[Help:Pipe trick|pipe-tricked]] [[m:Parameter#Parameters|(numbered) parameters]] (or 'pass parameters'), and displays them as an 'example demonstration' of how the ''template-name'' template could be coded, literally. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation.
* This template takes another ''template-name'' and some associated [[Help:Pipe trick|pipe-tricked]] [[m:Parameter#Parameters|(numbered) parameters]] (or 'pass parameters'), and displays them as an 'example demonstration' of how the ''template-name'' template could be coded, literally. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation.
* '''''Specifics:''''' Up to 10 pass parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) for the specified template are displayed as 'placeholders', and over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "<small>&amp;#124;</small>''...''"). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &amp;#61; or <nowiki>{{=}}</nowiki> or in nowiki-text: "&lt;nowiki>size=10&lt;/nowiki>" or all parameters as a string in <nowiki>"<nowiki>"</nowiki> tags; see ''[[#Examples|Examples]]'' at bottom. For more details, see [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}|this talk]] page.

* '''''Exceptions:''''' If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really ''not'' be used, and just hardcode the usage with {{nobr|<code><nowiki>&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;</nowiki></code>}}, for example: {{nobr|<code><nowiki>&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|</nowiki><var>other parameters...</var><nowiki>}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;</nowiki></code>}}.  If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with {{nobr|<code><nowiki><pre>...</pre></nowiki></code>}}.
* '''''Exceptions:''''' If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really ''not'' be used, and just hardcode the usage with {{nowrap|<code><nowiki>&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;</nowiki></code>}}, for example: {{nowrap|<code><nowiki>&lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{Anytemplate|arg1=23|size=250px|</nowiki><var>other parameters...</var><nowiki>}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt;</nowiki></code>}}.  If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with {{nowrap|<code><nowiki><pre>...</pre></nowiki></code>}}.
