| {{tl2|tl2}} differs in that it displays an arguably clearer result like {{tlx|tlx}}, and also takes the named parameters 'SISTER=xx' and 'LANG=ll', so that it may also be used to ''list and link to templates on other English and non-English language sister projects''.
| |
|
| |
| {{tlx|tlx}} displays with the same enhanced presentation, and also expands several 'placeholder' parameters to generate a sample template call.
