English Wikipedia has an article on:

Template:!-

This is an auxiliary template that allows one to encode "|-" within template parameters and parser functions. In Wiki markup this character sequence is used as a row separator within tables, and this escape template allows Wikitables to be built inside templates and other Wikitables.
