Template:Invokes/doc

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

This template should be put near the beginning of a template or module's documentation page to link to a module that the template invokes, or a template that invokes the module (respectively).

{{Invokes|ModuleName}}
or
{{Invokes|TemplateName}}

On a template documentation page, this parameter should be supplied with the page title for a module that the template invokes (without the "Module:" namespace prefix).

On a module documentation page, this parameter should be supplied with the page title for a template that invokes the module (without the "Template:" namespace prefix).

For example:

{{Invokes|page=Calculator:Skill calculators/Template}}

Result (if on the Module:Skill calc page):

Module:Skill calc is invoked by Calculator:Skill calculators/Template.
