The '''<nowiki>{{</nowiki>tf<nowiki>}}</nowiki>''' or '''<nowiki>{{</nowiki>textfix<nowiki>}}</nowiki>''' template corrects the inputted value into acceptable Wikipedia formatting (i.e., capitalized first letter of first word with lower case for all further letters and words).

=== Usage ===

The primary use of this template is as a meta-template, called within another template to ensure that a user's inputted value is outputted in the proper format. This template should not be used in instances where the inputted value might be a name of a person or place, as it will not capitalize any words other than the first.

<pre style="overflow:auto;">
{{tf | parameter 1 | parameter 2 | parameter 3 }}
</pre>

If only ''parameter 1'' is inputted, then ''parameter 1'' is text fixed. Otherwise, write either <code>w</code> or <code>wiki</code> into ''parameter 1'' which will cause the final result to be a wikilink — either ''parameter 2'' as the destination link and shown result or ''parameter 2'' as the destination link with ''parameter 3'' as the shown result.

'''Please note:''' The wikilink function will only be applied if the article in question exists. Otherwise, the template will solely return the shown result.
