This template uses Lua :
This template, often abbreviated as {{Tlg }} , is used to provide stylized formatting to template displays without actually using the template itself.
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.). They may be included in any order (see Examples below ). Certain templates have the parameter "on" by default; see the main table below for all alternate options.
