Template:Format item

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template transforms a given item using a given template.

Usage[edit source]

{{Format item | item = Item | template = TransformationTemplate | ... }}

TransformationTemplate is called with the parameters that the item has been created with, plus any additional parameters passed to {{Format item}}. Contents of the item take precedence over the additional parameters, unless the parameter name is prepended with important . If the parameter name collides with the parameters of {{Format item}} itself, prepend it with param . There is no need to combine Template:Pre-wrapand important , though.

It is also possible to transform multiple items at once, but not with this template.
