==Explanation==<br />
{{tlx|tlg}} ('''<u>t</u>emplate <u>l</u>ink, <u>g</u>eneral''') is a general template for inserting a template link. It can be used to replace or implement any of the more specific <code><nowiki>{{tl*}}</nowiki></code> templates, e.g. {{tlx|tl}}, {{tlx|tlx}} or {{tlx|tlb}}. Parameters are:<br />
* {{code|bold{{=}}yes}}: '''Boldface''' the text, like for {{tlx|tlb}} and {{tlx|tlxb}}<br />
* {{code|italic{{=}}yes}}: ''Italicizes'' the parameters, like for {{tlx|tlxi}}<br />
* {{code|code{{=}}yes}} or {{code|tt{{=}}yes}}: Use the <code><nowiki><code>...</code></nowiki></code> HTML attribute (usually a monospaced font), like for {{tlx|tlc}} {{tlx|tlx}} and {{tlx|tlxb}}<br />
* {{code|nolink{{=}}yes}}: Don't insert a template link, like for {{tlx|tlf}}, {{tlx|tld}}, and {{tlx|tlc}}<br />
* {{code|anypage{{=}}yes}}: Allow linking to arbitrary page (not just template), as with {{tlx|tlu}}<br />
* {{code|braceinside{{=}}yes}}: Put braces inside the link, like for {{tlx|tn}}<br />
* {{code|subst{{=}}yes}}: Add a {{code|subst:}} prefix, like for {{tlx|tls}}<br />
* {{code|alttext{{=}}FOO}}: Specify alternative surface text for a link, like for {{tlx|tla}}<br />
<br />

;Note: On the source sister projects, en.wikipedia and Meta, '''X0, X1, X2,..., X9 are sandbox templates''' for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space.
