English Wikipedia has articles on:

Template:Always substitute

Template:Never substitute

Template:May be substituted

This template is used as a header to show whether a template should be substituted or not. This template should never be substituted.

{{substitute}} should be placed on the documentation subpage of any template that requires substitution rather than transclusion (i.e. not on the template's own page itself).

Templates that should always be substituted are automatically added to Category:Substituted templates.

Parameters

{{{1}}} (required)

Set this to always if the template should always be substituted, no if the template should not be substituted, or both if the template can be either substituted or transcluded.
