The '''template link''' template is a simple [[w:Macro (computer science)|macro]] [[m:Help:template|template]] used to display a template name as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing the template name as code rather than actually invoking it. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation where it is used to refer to a template by name without invoking it.


==Style==
Note that this template may be used under the name "tee-el" (tl) as well as "tee-one" (t1)— both function the same way and produce the same results. This is not true for all such visually confusing templates containing a possible 1/l mix-up: and are not interchangeable.
Cam Patterson uses a standard style of IDM and Ambience that can be found amongst other artists of the same genre. Ambient music usually uses the instruments of Background Drums, Piano and other quiet instruments.


'''{{tl|Tla}}''' works exactly like {{tl|tl}} with the addition of optionally displaying '''a'''lternative label text (link label). '''{{tl|tlg}}''' can include the use of parameters in the template (as <nowiki>{{{1}}}</nowiki>).
