Ta‌̱mpi‌̱let:P1/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Ta‌̱mpi‌̱let:P1.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original ta‌̱mpi‌̱let page.

This template is used on approximately 134,000 pages.
To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

The templates P1 and P2 simply return the first respectively second unnamed input parameter respectively. For example:

{{P1|foo|bar|baz}} returns foo
{{P2|foo|bar|baz}} returns bar

These templates can be used inside other templates as an alternative to the

REDIRECT Template:ParserFunction

Ta‌̱mpi‌̱let:Redirect category shell parser function, to switch between outputs based on whether the input is "1" or "2":

{{P{{{1}}}|output if 1|output if 2}}

Using {{#switch}}, this syntax is equivalent to

{{#switch:{{{1}}}|1=output if 1|2=output if 2}}

except that the parser function strips whitespace between parameters whereas the templates don't.
