{{Nosubst}}

(Much like the template itself, this particular template should not be substituted! I hope this isn't too confusing...)

This template should be placed on the documentation subpage (not the template page itself) of any template that should not be substituted (and transcluded instead).

Parameters
  • This template accepts one optional parameter, which can be used to give a more detailed description of why the template in question should not be substituted. For example, {{Nosubst|Example text.}} produces:
List of subst helper templates
  • {{require subst}}: Prints an error unless substituted.
    • {{subst check top}}, {{subst check bottom}}: Same purpose, but used as a pair.
    • {{subst only}}: For the doc of the above templates; prints a message asking for it be substituted.
    • {{nosubst}}: The reverse of {{subst only}}. For the doc of templates which should not be substituted; prints a message asking for it not to be substituted.
    • {{substitution}}: Allows free-fill description of whether the template should be substituted and under what conditions.
  • {{issubst}}: Returns "yes" if substituted.
  • {{ifsubst}}: Forks if substituted or not.
