Please do not edit this page unless you're wanting to edit the manual itself, it is an example included in the manual.

Example

This example contains all the same elements as the prior examples, only it uses a surrogate/phantom template to format the second and third column of results. The first column is included in the listseparators statement, to prevent the page name from being repeated in every subsequent line. The second column, formatted in the surrogate, has a link constructed to link to the page and parameter name (as the heading/chapter anchor to its matching page heading)[[{{{%PAGE%}}}#{{{name}}}|{{{name}}}]]. The third column, formatted in the surrogate, uses the #sub Parser (string) Function {{#sub:{{{purpose|}}}|0|50}} to shorten the "purpose" parameter value to 50 characters. This is advanced use of a surrogate template in combination with the format statement. For more simple examples of surrogate template use, see the include parameter as related to included contents from templates, and for information about tables see also the table and tablerow parameters.

This example's surrogate template requires that $wgPFEnableStringFunctions be set to "true" (enabled) in order to function correctly; on Miraheze, this is a setting that can be found and enabled in ManageWiki.
