View source for Template:For loop delimited/doc

{{Documentation subpage}}
This is a simplified wrapper for [[Template:For nowiki]]. It allows you to iterate over a custom delimited list.

The expected use case for this is to simplify passing lists between templates. 
== Usage ==
* {{tlp|For loop delimited|''separator''|''delimited string''|call{{=}}''call''}}
* {{tlp|For loop delimited|''separator''|''delimited string''|delim{{=}}''delim''|call{{=}}''call''}}
* {{tlp|For loop delimited|''separator''|''delimited string''|delim{{=}}''delim''|nowikistart{{=}}prefix|nowikiend{{=}}postfix}}
=== Parameters ===
* <code>''separator'' (required)</code> defines how the items are separated
* <code>''delimited string'' (required</code> is a string separated by <code>''delim''</code> 
* <code>''delim'' (optional)</code> the delimiter for the string, defaults to <code>,</code>
* '''Calling''' (one is required)
** <code>''call''</code> template (that takes one unnamed argument) to call (ex, 3x).
** <code>''nowikistart''</code> and <code>''nowikiend''</code>. Code to be placed before and after each param value (ex: for 3x, respectively use <code><nowiki><nowiki>{{3x|</nowiki></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki><nowiki>}}</nowiki></nowiki></code>) Both are required if used

=== Notes ===
* Leading and trailing spaces are stripped from delims. ie:
