↑ The pipe generated by this template call will not be parsed as wiki markup if used in a table or when passed to a template that forms a wikilink. If you want a pipe that may be parsed as table markup or result in a piped link , use


      {{!}}

instead.

Used inside a table cell to display a pipe character

Wiki code

{| class="wikitable"
| this {{!!}} that
|}

Main version

that

Sandbox version

that

Used in a template parameter to display a pipe character

Wiki code

{{cmd|mount {{!!}} sort}}

Main version


          user
          
           $


          mount | sort

Sandbox version


          user
          
           $


          mount | sort

↑ Actually,


      {{!}}

could also be used here, but this works fine.

Used in a template parameter to display table wiki markup

Wiki code

{{noop|{{{!!}} class{{=}}"wikitable"<br>
{{!!}} cell contents<br>
{{!!}}}
}}

Main version

{| class="wikitable"

| cell contents
|}

Sandbox version

{| class="wikitable"

| cell contents
|}

↑ This example echoes the one in the documentation of {{!}} , where the output is an actual rendered wikitable (see that documentation for an explanation). This one just shows the code that would have made a table, if fully parsed. Notice that line breaks are "manually" inserted using <br> tags, since single newlines do not become visible line breaks in the output (just as in regular wiki text, where a double-newline [i.e., a "blank line"] is necessary to get a line break). To get this kind of raw-wikicode output, it's probably better to avoid using this template and just wrap normal table wikicode in a <pre> element instead.
