This is an auxiliary [[Help:Template|template]] that allows one to encode "<code>||</code>" (two pipes or [[vertical bar]]s) within template parameters. If this does not need to be interpreted as wikitext (i.e. table cell separators), it is better to use "<code>&#124;&#124;</code>". However the "<code>||</code>" delimiter for a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Tables|wikitable]] has to be [[:Category:Character-substitution templates|escaped by a template]] if it is used within a template.

== Notes ==
There is usually no such problem with "<code>!!</code>" (exclamation marks). This problem only affects "<code>||</code>" (vertical bars) in conjunction with the [[m:Help:Parameter default]] mechanism within tables. However, in table rows starting with "<code>!</code>" there can be problems with "<code>!!</code>" being interpreted as a cell separator. Try replacing it with "<code>&#33;&#33;</code>".

This template cannot be [[Wikipedia:Substitution|substituted]].

== Parameters ==

<TemplateData>{
"description": "Escapes double pipe characters within template parameters",
"params": {}
}</TemplateData>

*[[m:Help:Template#A parameter value containing a pipe character]]
