Magic words are strings of text that MediaWiki associates with a return value or function, such as time, site details, or page names. This page is about usage of standard magic words; for a technical reference, see Manual:Magic words.

There are three general types of magic words:

Page-dependent magic words will affect or return data about the current page, even if the word is added through a transcluded template or included system message.

Behavior switches

A behavior switch controls the layout or behaviour of the page and can often be used to specify desired omissions and inclusions in the content.

Vorlage:Hl2| Word Vorlage:Hl2| Description Vorlage:Hl2| Versions
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="3"| Table of contents
__NOTOC__ Hides the table of contents (TOC).
__FORCETOC__ Forces the table of content to appear at its normal position (above the first header).
__TOC__ Places a table of contents at the word's current position (overriding __NOTOC__). If this is used multiple times, the table of contents will appear at the first word's position.
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="3"| Editing
__NOEDITSECTION__ Hides the section edit links beside headings.
__NEWSECTIONLINK__ Adds a link ("+" by default) beside the "edit" tab for adding a new section on a non-talk page (see Adding a section to the end). 1.7+
__NONEWSECTIONLINK__ Removes the link beside the "edit" tab on pages in talk namespaces. 1.15+
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="3"| Categories
__NOGALLERY__ Used on a category page, replaces thumbnails in the category view with normal links. 1.7+
__HIDDENCAT__ Used on a category page, hides the category from the lists of categories in its members and parent categories (there is an option in the user preferences to show them). 1.13+
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="3"| Language conversion
__NOCONTENTCONVERT__
__NOCC__ 		On wikis with language variants, don't perform any content language conversion (character and phase) in article display; for example, only show Chinese (zh) instead of variants like zh_cn, zh_tw, zh_sg, or zh_hk.
__NOTITLECONVERT__
__NOTC__ 		On wikis with language variants, don't perform language conversion on the title (all other content is converted).
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="3"| Other
__START__ No effect.
__END__ Explicitly marks the end of the article, to prevent MediaWiki from removing trailing whitespace. Removed in 19213.
__INDEX__ Tell search engines to index the page (overrides $wgArticleRobotPolicies, but not robots.txt). 1.14+
__NOINDEX__ Tell search engines not to index the page (ie, do not list in search engines' results). 1.14+
__STATICREDIRECT__ On redirect pages, don't allow MediaWiki to automatically update the link when someone moves a page and checks "Update any redirects that point to the original title". 1.13+

Variables

Variables return information about the current page, wiki, or date. Their syntax is similar to templates. Variables marked as "[expensive]" are tracked by the software, and the number that can be included on a page is limited.

If a template name conflicts with a variable, the variable will be used (so to transclude the template Vorlage:PAGENAME you would need to write {{Vorlage:PAGENAME}}). In some cases, adding parameters will force the parser to treat a variable as a template; for example, {{CURRENTDAYNAME|x}} transcludes Vorlage:CURRENTDAYNAME.

 Tip for wiki admins: You can configure the number of expensive parser functions allowed on a page using the $wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit configuration setting.

Date & time

The following variables return the current date and time according to the user's timezone preferences, defaulting to the UTC timezone.

Due to MediaWiki and browser caching, these variables frequently show when the page was cached rather than the current time.

Vorlage:Hl2| Variable Vorlage:Hl2| Output Vorlage:Hl2| Description Vorlage:Hl2| Versions
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Year
{{CURRENTYEAR}} 2024 Year
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Month
{{CURRENTMONTH}} 11 Month (zero-padded number)
{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} November Month (name)
{{CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN}} November Month (genitive form)
{{CURRENTMONTHABBREV}} Nov. Month (abbreviation) 1.5+
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Day
{{CURRENTDAY}} 25 Day of the month (unpadded number)
{{CURRENTDAY2}} 25 Day of the month (zero-padded number) 1.6+
{{CURRENTDOW}} 1 Day of the week (unpadded number)
{{CURRENTDAYNAME}} Montag Day of the week (name)
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Time
{{CURRENTTIME}} 01:13 Time (24-hour HH:mm format)
{{CURRENTHOUR}} 01 Hour (24-hour zero-padded number)
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Other
{{CURRENTWEEK}} 48 Week (number)
{{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} 20241125011305 YYYYMMDDHHmmss timestamp 1.7+

The following variables do the same as the above, but using the site's local timezone instead of user preferences and UTC:

  • {{LOCALYEAR}}
  • {{LOCALMONTH}}
  • {{LOCALMONTHNAME}}
  • {{LOCALMONTHNAMEGEN}}
  • {{LOCALMONTHABBREV}}
  • {{LOCALDAY}}
  • {{LOCALDAY2}}
  • {{LOCALDOW}}
  • {{LOCALDAYNAME}}
  • {{LOCALTIME}}
  • {{LOCALHOUR}}
  • {{LOCALWEEK}}
  • {{LOCALTIMESTAMP}}
For more thorough time formatting, you may want to install Extension:ParserFunctions to use the #time: parser function

Technical metadata

Revision variables return data about the latest edit to the current page, even if viewing an older version of the page.

Vorlage:Hl2| Variable Vorlage:Hl2| Output Vorlage:Hl2| Description Vorlage:Hl2| Versions
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Site
{{SITENAME}} Salzwiki The wiki's site name ($wgSitename).

Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Affects page content
{{DISPLAYTITLE:title}} Format the current page's title header. The value must be equivalent to the default title: only capitalization changes and replacing spaces with underscores. It can be disabled or enabled by $wgAllowDisplayTitle; disabled by default before 1.10+, enabled by default thereafter. 1.7+
{{DEFAULTSORT:sortkey}}
{{DEFAULTSORTKEY:sortkey}}
{{DEFAULTCATEGORYSORT:sortkey}} 		Used for categorizing pages, sets a default category sort key. For example if you put {{DEFAULTSORT:Smith, John}} at the end of John Smith, the page would be sorted under "S" by default in categories. 1.10+

Statistics

Numbers returned by these variables normally contain separators (commas or spaces, depending on the local language), but can return raw numbers with the ":R" flag (for example, {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} → 1.784 and {{NUMBEROFPAGES:R}} → 1784). Use "|R" for magic words that require a parameter like PAGESINCATEGORY (for example {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Help}} and {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Help|R}}).

Vorlage:Hl2| Variable Vorlage:Hl2| Output Vorlage:Hl2| Description Vorlage:Hl2| Versions
Vorlage:Hl3 colspan="4"| Entire wiki

The {{BASEPAGENAME}} and {{SUBPAGENAME}} magic words only work in namespaces that have subpages enabled. See Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages for information on enabling subpages.

The following are URL-encoded equivalents:

  • {{FULLPAGENAMEE}}
  • {{PAGENAMEE}}
  • {{BASEPAGENAMEE}}
  • {{SUBPAGENAMEE}}
  • {{SUBJECTPAGENAMEE}}
  • {{TALKPAGENAMEE}}

As of 1.15+, these can all take a parameter, allowing specification of the page to be operated on, instead of just the current page:

  • {{PAGENAME:Template:Main Page}} → Main Page

Namespaces

Vorlage:Hl2| Variable Vorlage:Hl2| Output Vorlage:Hl2| Description Vorlage:Hl2| Versions
{{NAMESPACE}} Hilfe Namespace (name)

The following are URL-encoded equivalents:

  • {{NAMESPACEE}}
  • {{SUBJECTSPACEE}}
  • {{TALKSPACEE}}

As of 1.15+, these can all take a parameter, specifying the property should be returned for a given title instead of the current page:

  • {{NAMESPACE:Template:Main Page}} → Vorlage

Parser functions

Parser functions are very similar to variables, but take one or more parameters (technically, any magic word that takes a parameter is a parser function), and the name is usually prefixed with a hash to distinguish them from possible templates)

This page only describes parser functions that are integral to the MediaWiki software. Other parser functions may be added by MediaWiki extensions such as the ParserFunctions extension. For those see Help:Extension:ParserFunctions.

1.13+

{{#dateformat:date}} {{#formatdate:date}} {{#dateformat:date|format}} {{#formatdate:date|format}}

{{#dateformat:11 seP 2001|ymd}}
→ 11 seP 2001 (your pref), 2001 SeP 11 (default)
{{#formatdate:sep 11,2001|dmy}}
→ sep 11,2001 (your pref), 11 Sep 2001 (default)
{{#dateformat:1941-12-07|mdy}}
→ Dezember 7, 1941 (your pref), December 7, 1941 (default)
{{#formatdate:2001 sep 11|ISO 8601}}
→ 2001 sep 11 (your pref), 2001-09-11 (default)

Note: In the example above, "your pref" refers to your date preference on the current MediaWiki wiki only.

Formats an unlinked date based on user "Date format" preference. For logged-out users and those who have not set a date format in their preferences, dates can be given a default: mdy, dmy, ymd, ISO 8601 (all case sensitive). If a format is not specified or is invalid, the input format is used as a default. If the supplied date is not recognized as a valid date, it is rendered unchanged.

 Warning: Although the ISO 8601 standard requires that dates be in the Gregorian calendar, the ISO parameter in this function will still format dates that fall outside the usual Gregorian range (e.g. dates prior to 1583). 		1.15+
{{padleft:xyz|stringlength}}
{{padleft:xyz|strlen|char}} 		{{padleft:xyz|5}} → 00xyz
{{padleft:xyz|5|_}} → __xyz 		Inserts a string of padding characters (character chosen in third parameter; default '0') of a specified length (second parameter) next to a chosen base character or variable (first parameter). The final digits or characters in the base replace the final characters in the padding; i.e. {{padleft:44|3|0}} produces 044.
bug (fixed in r45734): multibyte characters are interpreted as two characters, which can skew width. These also cannot be used as padding characters. 		1.8+
{{padright:xyz|stringlength}}
{{padright:xyz|strlen|char}} 		{{padright:xyz|5}} → xyz00
{{padright:xyz|5|_}} → xyz__ 		Identical to padleft, but adds padding characters to the right side.
{{plural:2|is|are}} {{plural:1|is|are}} → is
{{plural:2|is|are}} → are 		Outputs the correct given pluralization form (parameters except first) depending on the count (first parameter). Plural transformations are used for languages like Russian based on "count mod 10".
{{grammar:N|noun}} Outputs

the correct inflected form of the given word described by the inflection code after the colon (language-dependent). Grammar transformations are used for inflected languages like Polish. See also Manual:$wgGrammarForms.
