This is the documentation for Template:For nowiki and Module:For nowiki. This module or template implements a foreach loop. It interprets a given wikitext (unlike {{For loop}}, which calls a specified template) once for each item in the list.
Usage
{{For nowiki|separator|<nowiki>wikitext</nowiki>|item1|item2|...}} {{For nowiki|separator|<nowiki>wikitext</nowiki>|count=count}} {{#invoke:For nowiki|template|separator|<nowiki>wikitext</nowiki>|force one loop}}
- General parameters
separatoris inserted between the results ofwikitextinterpretation. Whitespace is preserved.wikitextis interpreted once for each item in the list. It then may use{{{1}}}to get the item value, and{{{i}}}to get its position in the list (starting from 1), as well as any parameters that were passed to {{for nowiki}}. It may also contain template calls. To use a parameter passed to the calling template, surround it with</nowiki>...<nowiki>(the opening and closing tags are swapped) or pass the parameter directly to {{for nowiki}} if its name doesn't conflict with any reserved parameters.
- Use 1 specific
item1,item2,...are the items to iterate through, with{{{1}}}being replaced with the value and{{{i}}}with the name of the parameter/index.
- Use 2 specific
count=countis the number of times to interpret the provided wikitext. The template will pass each integer between 1 and that count as both|1=and|i=each time.
- Use 3 specific
force one loopforces the module to perform at least one loop, this is useful when you provide a default value for{{{1}}}.
- When using the module, numbered/unnamed parameters sent to the template (the page the module is used on) will be iterated through, with
{{{1}}}being replaced with the value and{{{i}}}with the name of the parameter/index.
