<onlyinclude>{{TemplateDataInfo/layout
|title=TemplateData
|text=[[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:TemplateData|TemplateData]] is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both, humans and machines. It is used by [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]] and possibly other tools like [[Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Upload Wizard|Upload Wizard]]. At Wikimedia Commons, there is the '''recommendation''' to either use {{tl|TemplateBox}} with <code><nowiki>useTemplateData=1</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>useTemplateData=only</nowiki></code> on the <code><nowiki>/doc</nowiki></code> subpage and transcluding it with {{tl|Documentation}} into the template. <code><nowiki><nowiki></nowiki></code>-tags can be wrapped around the the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded. Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw <nowiki><templatedata></nowiki>-tags into the Wikitext or the template.
