This is a documentation subpage for Template:Tag.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.
WarningThis template is used on approximately 6,500 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
This template is about 'displaying' markup tags. For 'using' markup tags, see the #tag magic word. For the inline maintenance tag, see Template:Fix.
{{tag|tagname }}

A markup tag is an open < and a close > angle brackets and the content within them, in a markup language, as XML or HTML:

For example, the <title> tag provides a title for the Web page.

This template provides a quick way to mention a markup-style tag in a preformatted way. Mainly used in discussion/help pages.

Parameters

See also: Span and div

Required parameters shown in bold italics.

|1=  (tagname above)
The XML/HTML tag's name (e.g. code, ref).
|2=  (type above)
To indicate which of the tag's types is/are presented:
p  (pair) (default)
A matching pair of open/start and close/end tags (e.g. <div>...</div>).
To suppress the ellipsis ("...") between the tags, add an empty |content= parameter (for example, <div></div>).
o  (open)
An open/start tag (e.g. <span>).
c  (close)
A close/end tag (e.g. </span>).
e  (empty)  or  s  (single)  or  v  (void)
An empty element, formed with a single self-terminating tag (e.g. <hr />); in HTML5 these are now known as "void" elements, though "empty" is the more common term.
|content=
Text to place between open/start and close/end tags.
|attribs=
Attributes and values to be included as part of an open/start tag (this parameter can also be called |params=).
|wrap=yes
Disable nowrap for long samples, so allowing wraps (line breaks).
|link=yes
Link to the element's entry at the HTML element article, e.g.:
     {{Tag|del|link=y}}
produces:
     <del>...</del>
This is only for HTML elements; the page is hard-coded, so it cannot be used for, e.g., XML elements from a particular schema. If desired, a feature for specifying the link page can be added.

{{stronggood}} "Only use ..." Same as {{strong}} but in green
{{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

{{tjp}} selfref=yes To display template parameters with colors (as they would appear in the {{tj}} and {{tji}} templates)
{{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.

{{subst:codenowiki}} {{small|small text example}} To wrap example code in <code><nowiki>...</nowiki></code>
{{subst:kbdnowiki}} {{large|large text example}} To wrap example code in <kbd><nowiki>...</nowiki></kbd>

{{deprecated code}} "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 (<blink>) while {{dcr}} uses red (<blink>).
