This template, often abbreviated as {{}}, is used to provide stylized formatting to template displays without actually using the template itself. The code generated will be displayed inline. For a multi-line output, see {{tj}}.

Parameters

With the exception of alttext, the named parameters are toggles that are either omitted (default in most cases) or activated (by being assigned a value such as "on", "yes", "true", "include", etc.).

{{em}}	"An emphatic phrase"	To indicate <em> stress emphasis (not just purely typographical italicization like for book titles or foreign terms)
{{var}}	`strPrefix`	To indicate text is a variable name. Use for any variable names except those including "I" (uppercase i) and/or "l" (lowercase L); for these, {{var serif}} should be used to ensure a noticeable distinction
{{var serif}}	`strIllustratePrefix`	(see {{var}} above)
{{tld}}	`{{DEFAULTSORT:Y, X}}`	To display wikicode variables and magic words as they would appear in code
{{para}}	`\|year=2008`	To display template parameters with or without values

{{param value}}	`··2·blanks·fore·and·aft··`	To display parameter values lightly bordered; replaces <code>...</code>, especially when value contains embedded or leading/trailing blanks; visualized here with middot (·) but can use ␠, ▯, or any character.

{{tji}}	{{hatnote\|Hello\|selfref=yes\|category=no}}	To showcase with colors in horizontal format the syntax of any template, while providing an easy way to display placeholder texts using colons as separators
{{tag}}	"The `‎<img>...‎</img>` tags ..."	To render HTML elements ("tags") in prose
{{code}}/{{codett}}	"Ensure the `alt=` parameter ..."	To indicate text is source code. To nest other templates within {{code}}, use `‎<code>...‎</code>`. {{codett}} differs only in styling: `someMethod` becomes `someMethod`
Template loop detected: Template:Tls	`{{small\|small text}}`	To wrap example code in `<code><nowiki>...</nowiki></code>`
Template loop detected: Template:Tls	`{{large\|large text}}`	To wrap example code in `<kbd><nowiki>...</nowiki></kbd>`

{{uw-ad3}}

This standardized template conforms to guidelines by the user warnings project. You may discuss the visual appearance of these standardized templates (e.g. the image in the top-left corner) at the user warning talk page.
Please refer to the index of message templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
When using multi-level templates, in some cases you need not start with a level-1 warning. See OODA WIKI:WikiProject User warnings/Usage and layout#Levels.
Please remember to substitute the template using {{subst:Uw-advert3}} rather than {{uw-advert3}}.
To give greater detail to your message, you may add the article and some additional text to the end of the template.
