Usage
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b4/Ambox_important.svg/30px-Ambox_important.svg.png) | This template should not be used in mainspace (the article namespace). |
This template is used to insert a quick and easy positive notice with high visibility (because it is green) on project and discussion pages (like the following sentence). Only use this template on non-article pages. (It cannot actually be used in articles; it will generate an error.) In situations where color is not relevant (color blindness, screen readers, etc.), it renders exactly the same as {{strong}} (to which it is a CSS-styled call). It is the opposite of the {{strongbad}} template.
- Template:Tlnull
or, if the important text contains an equals sign:
- Template:Tlnull
These both render as:
- important text
It is safest to always use the |1=
syntax.
This template puts intentional and explicit <strong>...</strong>
(importance, seriousness, or urgency) HTML markup around the text provided as the first parameter.
Because some people are color blind, and some use screen readers, this template should not be used in a manner in which only the color indicates the difference between the content being marked up and other content; it's simply a visual aid for those who can use it.
Parameters
See Template:Strong#Optional parameters.
See also
- {{strong}} – same but not green (same color as surrounding text, usually black)
- {{strongbad}} – same but red
- {{em}} – for italic rather than bold semantic emphasis

Template | Example output | Use |
---|
Template:Tlxb | Important! | To indicate <strong> importance, seriousness, or urgency instead of just simple typographical boldfacing | Template:Tlxb | "Never use ..." | Same as {{strong}} but in red | Template:Tlxb | "Only use ..." | Same as {{strong}} but in green | Template:Tlxb | "An emphatic phrase" | To indicate <em> stress emphasis (not just purely typographical italicization like for book titles or foreign terms) | Template:Tlxb | 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, {{varserif}} should be used to ensure a noticeable distinction | Template:Tlxb | Template:Varserif | (see {{var}} above) | Template:Tlxb | Template:Tlg | To display wikicode variables and magic words as they would appear in code | Template:Tlxb | |year=2008 | To display template parameters with or without values | Template:Tlxb | {{{title|alt}}} | To display parameters as used in code (i.e. with triple braces), especially to indicate relationships between them. May be combined with {{para}} above | Template:Tlxb etc. | {{Template|1|2|...|10}} | To display a template call (with or without parameters and values) as code | Template:Tlxb | "The <img>...</img> tags ..." | To render HTML elements ("tags") in prose | Template:Tlxb/Template:Tlxb | "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:Tlxs | {{small|small text}} | To wrap example code in <code><nowiki>...</nowiki></code> | Template:Tlxs | {{big|big text}} | To wrap example code in <kbd><nowiki>...</nowiki></kbd> | Template:Tlxb | [this is a block template] | (or {{sxhl}}) Wrapper for <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight> , but will wrap overflowing text | Template:Tlxb | "Do not use <blink> ." | (or {{dc}}) To indicate deprecated source code in template documentation, articles on HTML specs, etc. The {{dc2}} variant uses strike-through (<Template:Dc2> ) while {{dcr}} uses red (<Template:Dcr> ). | Template:Tlxb | [this is a block template] | For larger blocks of source code and other pre-formatted text | Template:Tlxb | [this is a block template] | For block quotations (only – never for non-quotations) | Template:Tlxb | [this is a block template] | For indented blocks of material; visually identical to {{quote}} but without quote markup | Template:Tlxb | user input | To indicate user input | Template:Tlxb | Ctrl+x | To indicate specific-keystroke input, including combinations | Template:Tlxb | Left shift | Similar; includes more symbols, but does not directly support combinations | Template:Tlxb | Template:Lower | To indicate PlayStation-style gamepad key presses | Template:Tlxb | Don't save | To indicate a button in a user interface | Template:Tlxb | example output | To indicate sample or example output |
