General-purpose formatting

¹ {{tlg}} is the most general, allowing any combination of text style and/or link style options.
² Prevents wrapping of text by placing it inside <span class="nowrap">...</span> tags.
³ Uses monospace font but not <code>...</code>.
⁴ Allows links to templates in any namespace.

Other formatting templates

Code example	Effect	Notes
`{{tl2\|Hatnote\|lang=fr}}`	`{{hatnote}}`	Supports linking to sister projects (e.g., fr:Hatnote)
`{{tlu\|User:Ahunt/SSHFS}}`	`{{User:Ahunt/SSHFS}}`	Supports linking to any namespace
`{{demo\|<nowiki>{{Hatnote\|lang=fr\|Some text}}</nowiki>}}`	Template:Demo	Shows code and example
`{{xpd\|Hatnote\|Some hatnote text}}`	Template:If	Shows code, example and a link to expand the template code
`{{para\|title\|<var>book title</var>}}`	`\|title=book title`	Formats template parameters for display, with or without values
