Module:Unsubst/doc

Helper module to facilitate a substituted template transform into a template transclusion.

Maintenance templates, such as Citation needed or Refimprove, should never be substituted. A trick to avoid that is to make a template substitute to its transcluded form.

Example
Consider a template Template:Example containing the following code:
