Template:For nowiki

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
Template documentation

This template implements a foreach loop. It interprets a given wikitext (unlike {{For loop}}, which calls a specified template) once for each item in the list.

Usage[edit]

{{For nowiki| separator }}
{{For nowiki| separator }}
  • separator is inserted between the results of wikitext interpretation. Whitespace is preserved.
  • wikitext is interpreted once for each item in the list. It then may use {{{1}}} to get the item value, and {{{i}}} to get its position in the list (starting from 1), as well as any parameters that were passed to {{for nowiki}}. It may also contain template calls. To use a parameter passed to the calling template, surround it with </nowiki>...<nowiki> (the opening and closing tags are swapped) or pass the parameter directly to {{for nowiki}} if its name doesn't conflict with any reserved parameters.

The second form of this template using a |count= parameter interprets the given wikitext count times, passing each integer between 1 and that count as both |1= and |i= each time.
