Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

  • {{Expensive}}

Place this at the top of documentation sub-pages of templates or modules which MAY call one or more "expensive parser functions." Include specific details, such as what parameters trigger expensive parser function usage, in the body of the template's documentation.

Special case
  • Templates unlikely to ever be the major reason a page reaches the 500-call limit
Use your best judgment about using this at the top of the template's documentation page, but DO document the expensive parser function usage somewhere in the template's documentation.
