The templates P1 and P2 simply return the first respectively second unnamed input parameter respectively. For example:
- Template:P1 (talk links edit) returns Template:P1
- Template:P2 (talk links edit) returns bar
These templates can be used inside other templates as an alternative to the Template:Pf parser function, to switch between outputs based on whether the input is "1" or "2":
- [[Template:P{{{1}}}]] ([[Template talk:P{{{1}}}|talk]] {1}}}|limit=500}} links {1}}}|action=edit}} edit)
Using {{#switch}}, this syntax is equivalent to
- [[Template:Template:Hashswitch:{{{1}}}]] ([[Template talk:Template:Hashswitch:{{{1}}}|talk]] Template:Hashswitch:{{{1}}}|limit=500}} links Template:Hashswitch:{{{1}}}|action=edit}} edit)
except that the parser function strips whitespace between parameters whereas the templates don't.
