Template documentation
Consider replacing invocations of this template with Special:ApiHelp transclusion (<translate> task <tvar name=1>T89318</tvar></translate>), since filling in this template redundantly repeats API parameter documentation in source code.

Usage

This template can be used to document API parameters. Its intent is to harmonize the appearance of template parameters across all of the API pages.
