Some of these features are especially useful for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Templates" title="Wikipedia:Templates">templates</a>. </p><p>This page is a quick reference for magic words.

It will be stripped from the start and end of their keywords and parameters (as is also done in template calls using named parameters).</li> <li>They can be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Transclusion" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Transclusion">transcluded</a>, even variables "about the current page". This is ensured by the parsing order.</li> <li>Instead of magically transforming into HTML instructions, <code class="nowrap" style=""><<a href="/wiki/Help:Wikitext#Nowiki" title="Help:Wikitext">nowiki</a>></code> tags remove this magic so a magic word can itself be displayed (documented), e.g. <code><nowiki>{{#magic:}}</nowiki></code>or <code>{{#magic:<nowiki/>}}</code>.</li></ul> <p>Magic words compared to templates: </p> <ul><li>As with templates, magic words can be <a href="/wiki/Help:Transclusion" title="Help:Transclusion">transcluded</a> and <a href="/wiki/Help:Substitution" title="Help:Substitution">substituted</a>.</li> <li>The names of magic words are purposely chosen to be unlike the names of templates, and vice versa. Many parser function names will begin with a <code>#</code>(<a href="/wiki/Hash_(character)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hash (character)">pound or hash</a>), but template names <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NCHASHTAG" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NCHASHTAG"> will not start with a <code>#</code></a>, and probably not end in a <code>:</code>(colon), or be all-uppercase.</li> <li>The first parameter's syntax differs. In <code>{{#magic: p1 | p2 | p3}}</code>, the name is <code>#magic</code>and it is followed by an unspaced <code>:</code>and a required input parameter, <code>p1</code>. With a template, <code>p1</code>is optional and it is preceded by a <code>|</code>(pipe) instead of a <code>:</code>, e.g. <code>{{template|p1}}</code>.</li></ul> <p>Most magic words can be used in any needed locations on a page; see <a href="/wiki/MOS:ORDER" class="mw-redirect" title="MOS:ORDER">MOS:ORDER</a> for guidance on where to place magic words that are behavior switches. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Behavior_switches" data-mw-thread-id="h-Behavior_switches"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Behavior_switches"></span>Behavior switches<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Behavior_switches"></span></h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Behavior_switches" class="extiw" title="mw:Help:Magic words">mw:Help:Magic words § Behavior switches</a></div> <table class="wikitable plainrowheaders"> <tbody><tr> <th scope="col">Switch </th> <th scope="col">Description </th></tr> <tr> <th scope="row" id="TOC"><kbd>__TOC__</kbd> </th> <td>Places the page's <a href="/wiki/Help:Table_of_contents" class="mw-redirect" title="Help:Table of contents">table of contents (TOC)</a> at the word's position.
