Template talk:ReturnInput

Huh? Two things: First, what's the point? Second, What's the "ing" at the end of the template command for?  Calor  &mdash;  talk  19:00, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * i don't understand either... why put something into a template that does nothing else but write what you give it as parameter? - Y0_ ich_halt  [[Image:User Y0_ich_halt_sig.jpg|16px|Have a look at my page]] 19:02, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Some things cannot be parsed directly into certain parser functions, but they be can into others. Because you are not parsing directly into those that can't be parsed into, you can parse things that you otherwise couldn't. I was intending to use it. It now turns out I don't need it, but either way it is useful in certain situations. Wikipedia has an example of this particular function at w:Template:ReturnInput.

 * i thought it would be something like that, but i can't think of anything concrete. - Y0_ ich_halt  [[Image:User Y0_ich_halt_sig.jpg|16px|Have a look at my page]] 20:02, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The given example on Wikipedia is really bad. You can use  and it will work (as described here)... Still don't get the point of this template.. poke | talk 16:12, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
