Template documentation | This template is used on approximately 229,000 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. |

This template allows to differentiate between regular Template:... and Template:.../sandbox pages. It is typically used to prevent a /sandbox page being categorised with their main page.
- Also
- when numbered /sandbox1
Any subpage /sandboxANYTEXT is considered a /sandbox. So this includes /sandbox1, /sandbox_2.
- Also
- /doc
A /doc subpage is also considered a /sandbox.
Usage
This template can be used on template documentation pages to ensure that any given template sandbox or template documentation does not populate its main template's category(ies).
This template has two unnamed parameters, |1= and |2=. Near the bottom of a /doc page where the categories are usually placed, install this template as follows:
{{Documentation subpage}}
<!-- all /documentation code goes here -->
<includeonly>{{sandbox other||
<!-- categories the main template should be in, but not the /sandbox: -->
[[Category:(first category)]]
[[Category:(second category)]]
}}</includeonly>

Usage
Wraps a short span of text in <syntaxhighlight> tags (see mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight). This template should be used for short samples; longer content should use <pre>...</pre> or <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight>. See Help:Wiki markup for an explanation of what the various tags do.
If the content includes an equals sign (=), you must specify the parameter explicitly: {{code|1=date=30 Feb 2010}}.
The template uses the <syntaxhighlight> tag with the attribute inline=1. This works like the combination of the <code> and <nowiki> tags, applied to the expanded wikitext. For example, {{code|some '''wiki''' text}} will not render the word "wiki" in bold, and will render the tripled-single-quotes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
However, {{code|a {{template}} call}} will still invoke the template:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
Use <nowiki>...</nowiki> around the template name to avoid this problem:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
When used inline with regular text, {{code}} generally looks best and is easiest to read when it is explicitly spaced apart from the regular text:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
is well spaced:
- foo Template loop detected: Template:Code quux.
versus:
- Template loop detected: Template:Code
which is going to be visually confusing for many:
- foo Template loop detected: Template:Code quux.
because "foo" and "Template loop detected: Template:Code" will seem more closely associated than "Template loop detected: Template:Code" and "Template loop detected: Template:Code"; the width of the space character in a monospaced font is almost always larger than in a proportional font.
Use parameter {{{2}}} (unnamed, as |2=, or more explicitly as |lang=) to specify a language for mw:Extension:SyntaxHighlight. This option defaults to plain-text, i.e. no highlighting. There is no highlighting option for wikitext as a markup language, though Template loop detected: Template:Code and Template loop detected: Template:Code are valid values, as are Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code, Template loop detected: Template:Code and many others. Attempting to use an invalid one causes a list of valid ones to be displayed in place of the template output, when the page is previewed or saved.
This template does not need to be substituted.

Embedded templates do not function as expected inside {{code}}; for longer, free-form blocks of code, which can contain templates such as {{var}} and {{samp}}, use <code>...</code> as a wrapper instead of this template.
