This is a documentation subpage for Template: ! (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This is an auxiliary template allowing one to encode "|" within template parameters. It is not necessary to use a "|" in these cases; it is better use "|" for this purpose. However the "|" delimiter for a Wiki table has to be escaped by a template if it is used within a template. See Template: Babel for an example of usage.

Note that there is no such problem with "!" (exclamation point); it only affects "|" (vertical bar) in conjunction with the parameter default mechanism within tables.
