Usage

Finds min(length,498) for the expanded wikitext of a given wikitext, including possible spaces, even at the start and end. A newline counts as one character.

Examples

• "{{len|abc}}" → "3" [1]
• "{{len|abc&s}}" → "4" [2]
• "{{len|&sabc}}" → "4" [3]
• "{{len|&sabc&s}}" → "5" [4]
• "{{len|&s&s&s}}" → "3" [5]
• "{{len|&nl}}" → "1" [6]
• "{{len|ab&nlc}}" → "4" [7]
• "{{len|aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb ccccccccccccccccccccccccc ddddddddddddddddddddddddd eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee}}" → "127" [8]
• "{{len|<span class="nowrap"><code>{{tlc|...}}</code></span>}}" → "77" [9]
• "{{len|123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789 123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123}}" → "498" [10]

To find the length of the trimmed string, add "1=" in front:

• "{{len|1= abc }}" gives "3"

<nowiki> tags and their content are internally replaced by a code, affecting the length:

• {{len|<nowiki>{{tc}}</nowiki>}}" gives "34"
• {{len|<nowiki>abc{{tc}}</nowiki>}}" gives "34"
