Template:!

This template and the help text below was copied from MetaWikiPedia:Template:!.

This is an auxiliary template allowing to encode " " within template parameters. It is unnecessary to get a " " in these cases, better use " " for this purpose. However the " " delimiter for a Wiki table has to be escaped by a template if it's used within a template, see also w:Wikipedia:Qif conditionals.

Note that there's no such problem with " " (exclamation mark), it only affects " " (vertical bar) in conjunction with the m:Help:Parameter_default mechanism within tables.

For obvious reasons this is a high risk template, and it cannot be substituted.
