قالب:Dtl/doc

The Wikidata template link template is a simple macro template used to display a Wikidata template name as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing the Wikidata template name as code rather than actually invoking it. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation where it is used to refer to a Wikidata template by name without invoking it.

Usage

{{dtl|Ping project}} generates {{d:Ping project}}
