Template:Markup
This template is used to present markup or code side by side with the output it renders.
Usage
[muda l codesc]Each pair of {{Markup}}'s arguments should be two copies of some wikitext markup, with the first of the pair enclosed in Template:Xtag tags. The template produces output in two columns, the first showing the markup and the second showing how it is rendered. The template accepts up to 40 unnamed parameters, resulting in up to 20 rows of examples.
This:
{{markup|<nowiki>'''Bold text'''</nowiki>|'''Bold text'''}}
Produces this:
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
'''Bold text''' |
Bold text |
In many cases, the markup for both columns are identical, but there are instances where this may need to differ. If none of these issues apply, then you may use {{mra}} to save yourself from copying the code twice.
- Header markup such as
==will show in the page table of contents; to avoid this, use{{fake heading}}in the markup for the second column (see example below). - Some templates will place the page in a maintenance category, which is usually undesired. For example.
- Instead of
{{citation needed}}, use{{fake citation needed}}in the second column.
- Instead of
- Some templates may have error checking that places the page in a maintenance category.
Template:Cs1 templates with errors: add|template doc demo=trueto the template in the second column.- To avoid this and the associated red error messages make sure that each example on the page uses different sources.
- HTML entities are parsed in the first cell, even with Template:Xtag tags. To work around this, replace the
&with&in the first column (see example below).
It is advisable to begin both copies of the markup with a newline; this is necessary if the first line of the markup must start on a new line (such as #, * or ;).
Examples
[muda l codesc]Multiple rows
[muda l codesc]| Markup | Renders as |

{{cite book|ref=none|last=Smith|year=2021|title=Smith's book}}
|
Smith (2021). Smith's book. |
<score>\relative c' { c( b~ c b c b c b c~ c)}</score>
|

With custom title and column headers
[muda l codesc]| Write this in wikitext | and this will appear in the article. |
|---|---|
The quick brown [[fox]] jumps over the lazy [[dog]]. |
|
A complex example
[muda l codesc]In this example, Template:Tl2's second argument here uses Template:Tl2 (to avoid headings appearing in the table of contents) and Template:Tl2 (to avoid adding this page to the maintenance list).
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.{{#tag:ref|A footnote.<ref>A reference for the footnote.</ref>|group=nb}} The cow jumped over the moon.{{fact}}
== Notes ==
{{reflist|group=nb}}
== References ==
{{reflist}}
|
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.[nb 1] The cow jumped over the moon.Template:Fake citation needed
|
With HTML entities
[muda l codesc]HTML entities are parsed in the markup cell. To work around this, replace the & with & in the first column.

{{cite book |last=White |first=T. H. |title=The Book of Merlyn |year=1977}}

Typing aid: template {{mra}}
[muda l codesc]{{mra}} will duplicate the source text automatically, saving you the trouble of copying the text and adding Template:Xtag tags to the first case.
This:
{{subst:mra|'''Bold text'''|''Italic text''}}
Will produce this:
{{markup|
<nowiki>'''Bold text'''</nowiki>|'''Bold text'''|
<nowiki>''Italic text''</nowiki>|''Italic text''}}
Which renders as:
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
'''Bold text''' |
Bold text |
''Italic text'' |
Italic text |
