This template can be used to encapsulate deliberate or apparent [[wikipedia:typo|typo]]s to save them from correction by bots and automated wiki-editors. Its purpose is to indicate passages that might appear incorrect to an automated tool, but which are actually correct. It has no effect on the rendered wikitext. The template is also recognized by [[wikipedia:WP:AWB]] during normal Regex typo fixing procedures, in which the program skips the text during its evaluation.
{{tsh|Not typo|nat}}
Any of four names can be used:
# {{Tl|Not a typo}} for items that are actually correct; for example, <nowiki>"he put a little {{not a typo|english}} on the ball",</nowiki> in which "english" is not capitalised.
# {{Tl|As written}} For situations where the spelling is not deliberately incorrect or correct; for example, a book title: "Pardoe, Julia. ''The Life of Marie de Medici''" as "[[wikipedia:Marie de' Medici|Marie de' Medici]]" has multiple spellings.
 
Also be aware of:
# {{Tl|Lang}} for other-language text. If this is used a [[wikipedia:List_of_ISO_639-1_codes|language code]] is required.
# {{Tl|Sic}}, which can be used to mark up text, {{Sic|thus}}, or invisibly.
