Template:For
This template is used to indicate that a template uses one or more Lua modules (pages in the Module: namespace). It is placed at the top of the template's /doc page. It automatically adds a floating right notification box, and it adds the template to Category:Lua-based templates or to one of its subcategories.
Usage
- Basic
- Template:Tlx
- All parameters
- Template:Tlx
The first module name is required.

Categorisation
Template category
This template adds pages to Category:Lua-based templates if the page is in the template namespace, and it is not on any of the subpages /doc, /sandbox, /sandbox2 or /testcases. You can specify a different category with the Template:Para parameter, e.g. Template:Para.
Some modules have a default category other than Category:Lua-based templates:
- Module:String has the default category Category:Templates based on the String Lua module.
- Module:Math has the default category Category:Templates based on the Math Lua module.
- Module:BaseConvert has the default category Category:Templates based on the BaseConvert Lua module.
- Module:Citation/CS1 has the default category Category:Templates based on the Citation/CS1 Lua module.
Error category
If no modules are specified, the transcluded page will be added to Category:Lua templates with errors.
Category suppression
To suppress all categorisation, use Template:Para. (As well as "true", the values "yes", "y", and "1" will also work.)
