Help:Magic words#Page names and related info

| Places the page's table of contents (TOC) at the word's position. This magic word does not work in skins that present the table of contents outside the article content e.g. the default Vector 2022 skin.

| Forces the TOC to appear in its default position, even when there are fewer than four headings. Can be used anywhere on a page. This magic word does not work in skins that present the table of contents outside the article content e.g. the default Vector 2022 skin.

| Suppresses the appearance of the page's TOC. Can be used anywhere on a page.

| Hides the "edit" links normally beside all headings on the page. To hide the edit link beside a particular heading, specify the heading using e.g. an HTML tag such as {{tag|h2|content=heading}} rather than with the usual wiki equals-signs syntax (e.g. {{nowrap|1=== heading ==}}{{thinsp}}).

| Hides the "Reply" button

| Used to amend the displayed form of the page's title.

| Sets the default key (the index) under which the page is categorised. Functionality is documented at {{section link|Help:Category#Default sort key}}, and guidelines are at {{section link|Wikipedia:Categorization#Sort keys}}.

|| (equivalent to {{NOEXTERNALLANGLINKS:*}}{{thinsp}}) Suppresses the automated inclusion of Wikidata interlanguage links on the lefthand side of the page. Links to particular rather than all languages may be suppressed by using {{NOEXTERNALLANGLINKS:list}}, where list a pipe-delimited list of language codes (e.g. {{NOEXTERNALLANGLINKS:fr{{pipe}}es{{pipe}}ja}} to suppress the French ("fr"), Spanish ("es") and Japanese ("ja") interlanguage links).

| Protection expiry assigned to action ("edit", "move", etc.) on named page (this page's protection expiry is {{PROTECTIONEXPIRY:edit|Help:Magic words}}).

| Protection level for pending changes on the named page (this page, which doesn't have one, is{{PENDINGCHANGELEVEL}}).

| Number of pages in the category named categoryname. Each subcategory is counted as one item.

| Converts first character of string to upper case.

| Adds comma separators to an unformatted_number (e.g. 123456789 becomes {{formatnum:123456789}}). To remove such formatting, use {{formatnum:formatted_number{{pipe}}R}} (i.e. {{braces|formatnum:7,654,321{{pipe}}R}}, for example, produces {{formatnum:7,654,321|R}}).

| Formats a date according to user preferences; a default can be given as an optional case-sensitive second parameter for users without date preference; can convert a date from an existing format to any of dmy, mdy, ymd, or ISO 8601 formats, with the user's preference overriding the specified format.

| Pad with zeroes '0' to the right or left, to fill the given length; an alternative padding string can be given as a third parameter; the repeated padding string (padstr) will be truncated if its length does not evenly divide the required number of characters.

| Outputs singular if N is equal to 1, otherwise outputs plural. See the documentation at mediawiki.org for more details.

| Used to format dates and times, for ISO format, dots or English month names. #timel and #timefl are based on local time as defined for each wiki; for English Wikipedia, this is identical to #time and #timef.
The optional 3rd parameter is the output language code (French, German, Swedish: fr, de, sv, etc.). Example Finnish: {{#time:d F Y|June 30, 2016|fi}} shows: {{#time:d F Y|June 30, 2016|fi}} (June). ISO to German: {{#time:d. M Y|1987-10-31|de}} shows: {{#time:d. M Y|1987-10-31|de}}.
For format codes, see: mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##time. Use the format {{#time: H:i, j F Y (e)|...}} to match the format used by timestamps in signatures.
#timef formats a date using a standard format for the selected language, see: mw:Help:Extension:ParserFunctions##timef.

| Outputs result1 if string1 and string2 are equal (alphabetically or numerically), otherwise outputs result2.

| Outputs result1 if test_string generates a parsing error, otherwise outputs result2.

| Outputs result1 if expression{{thinsp}} is true, otherwise outputs result2.

| Outputs result1 if the page [[pagetitle]] exists, otherwise outputs result2. Note that underscores are needed for spaces in namespaces.

| Outputs r1 if string is c1, r2 if string is c2, etc., otherwise outputs default (if provided).

| Used to include a pipe character as part of a template argument or table cell contents. Before this was added as a magic word, many wikis implemented this by creating :Template:! with {{!}} as the content.

| Used to include an equal sign as part of a template argument or table cell contents. Before this was added as a magic word, many wikis implemented this by creating :Template:= with {{=}} as the content.
