The {{tlb}} typing-aid template, whose name stands for 'Template Link' Bold, is used to display a template name in bold as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing how the template would be used in code, and it uses a proportional font. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation. With {{tlb}} you can add up to 12 parameters and interwiki links separated by "|", escaping any "=" with "{{=}}".
