Plot

Georges, the master of ceremonies, welcomes the audience to his St. Tropez drag nightclub, "La Cage aux Folles". The chorus line known as Les Cagelles appear and introduce themselves to the audience. Georges and his "wife", Albin, have lived happily together for many years in an apartment above La Cage with their "maid" Jacob. Albin is a drag queen and the star performer of La Cage aux Folles under the alias of "Zaza".

As Albin prepares to perform, Georges' 24-year-old son Jean-Michel (the offspring of a confused, youthful liaison with a woman named Sybil) arrives home with the news that he is engaged to Anne Dindon. Georges is reluctant to approve of Jean-Michel's engagement, but Jean-Michel assures his father that he is in love with Anne. Unfortunately, her father is head of the "Tradition, Family and Morality Party", whose stated goal is to close the local drag clubs. Anne's parents want to meet their daughter's future in-laws. Jean-Michel has lied to his fiancée, describing Georges as a retired diplomat. Jean-Michel pleads with Georges to tell Albin to absent himself (and his flamboyant behaviors) for the visit - and for Georges to redecorate the apartment in a more subdued fashion. Jean-Michel also asks Georges to invite Sybil, who has barely seen him since his birth, to dinner in Albin's stead. Albin returns from the show to greet his son when Georges suggests that they take a walk.

Georges takes Albin to the Promenade Café, owned by Monsieur and Madame Renaud, where he attempts to soften Albin's emotions before telling him of Jean-Michel's request. Before Georges can break the news to him, Albin suggests that they hurry back to La Cage to make it in time for the next show. They arrive in time and Albin takes the stage once more as Zaza. While Albin is performing, Georges and Jean-Michel quickly redecorate the house. While Albin is changing for his next number, he notices the two carrying his gowns and demands to know what is going on. Georges finally tells Albin of Jean-Michel's plan and expects Albin to explode with fury, but he remains silent. Albin then re-joins Les Cagelles onstage, tells them to leave, and begins to sing alone in defiance of Jean-Michel, stating that he is proud of who he is and refuses to change for anyone. He throws his wig at Georges and departs in a huff.

The next morning, Georges finds Albin at the Promenade Café after his abrupt departure and apologizes. He then suggests to Albin that he dress up for dinner as macho "Uncle Al". Albin is still upset, but reluctantly agrees to act like a heterosexual for Jean-Michel. With the help of Monsieur and Madame Renaud, Georges successfully teaches Albin to abandon his flamboyancy. Back at the chastely redesigned apartment, Georges shows "Uncle Al" to Jean-Michel. Jean-Michel doesn't like the idea and expresses his dislike for Albin's lifestyle. Georges angrily reminds Jean-Michel of how good of a "mother" Albin has been to him. They then receive a telegram that Jean-Michel's mother Sybil is not coming and Anne's parents arrive. Hoping to save the day, Albin appears as Jean-Michel's buxom, forty-year-old mother, in pearls and sensible shoes. The nervous Jacob burns the dinner, so a trip to a local restaurant, "Chez Jacqueline", belonging to an old friend of Albin and Georges, is quickly arranged. No one has told Jacqueline of the situation, and she asks Albin (as Zaza) for a song, to which he hesitantly agrees. Everyone in the restaurant begins to take part in the song, causing Albin to yield to the frenzy of performance and tear off his wig at the song's climax, revealing his true identity.

Back at the apartment, the Dindons plead with their daughter to abandon her fiancé, for they are appalled by his homosexual parents, but she is in love with Jean-Michel and refuses to leave him. Jean-Michel, deeply ashamed of the way he has treated Albin, asks his forgiveness, which is lovingly granted. The Dindons prepare to depart, but their way is blocked by Jacqueline, who has arrived with the press, ready to photograph the notorious anti-homosexual activists with Zaza. Georges and Albin have a proposal: If Anne and Jean-Michel may marry, Georges will help the Dindons escape through La Cage downstairs. Georges bids the audience farewell while Les Cagelles prepare the Dindons for the grand finale. Georges then introduces the Dindons, dressed in drag as members of the nightclub's revue, and they escape the paparazzi with Jean-Michel and Anne behind them. With everyone gone, Albin enters and he and Georges briefly sing of their love for each other before sharing a kiss.

Usage

Note: This documentation for Template loop detected: Template:Tlx is also transcluded by its derivatives Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx (editTemplate:Dotmaster page).

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}}

Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with Template:Tlf:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|tenth}}

For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use Template:Tag thus:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}

For a comparison, see Template talk:Lts. , "[t]emplate [l]ink").

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to ten of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "&#124;..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &#61; or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "Template:Tag" or all parameters as a string in "Template:Tag" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with Template:TagTemplate:Tag. For example:

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

Template:Para

For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as: Template:Para (Meta), Template:Para (WikiQuote), Template:Para (WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.

Template:Para

For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as: Template:Para (German), Template:Para (Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.

Usage

Note: This documentation for Template loop detected: Template:Tlx is also transcluded by its derivatives Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx (editTemplate:Dotmaster page).

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}}

Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with Template:Tlf:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|tenth}}

For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use Template:Tag thus:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}

Purpose and naming

Mnemonically, "[t]emplate [l]ink e[x]panded" (after Template loop detected: Template:Tl, "[t]emplate [l]ink").

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to ten of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "&#124;..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &#61; or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "Template:Tag" or all parameters as a string in "Template:Tag" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with Template:TagTemplate:Tag. For example:

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

Parameters

  • If the only parameter supplied is Template:Param, i.e. a template's name, Template:Tlf's output is the same as Template loop detected: Template:Tl – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
    • Template:Tc produces: Template loop detected: Template:Tl
    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}.

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

Parameters

  • If the only parameter supplied is Template:Param, i.e. a template's name, Template:Tlf's output is the same as Template loop detected: Template:Tl – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
    • Template:Tc produces: Template loop detected: Template:Tl
    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

Template:Para

For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as: Template:Para (Meta), Template:Para (WikiQuote), Template:Para (WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.

Template:Para

For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as: Template:Para (German), Template:Para (Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.

Documentation

Template loop detected: Template:Tl is a generalization of Template loop detected: Template:Tl, Template loop detected: Template:Tl etc., with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as " { ", " | ", " } " and links can be hard to read when not monospaced (and hard to click on; for uses like {{!}}, see Template loop detected: Template:Tl, which makes the click target bigger).

Usage

{{tlx|Templatename}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10&#124;more}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param&#61;value}}

There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.

Examples

Note: This documentation for Template loop detected: Template:Tlx is also transcluded by its derivatives Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx (editTemplate:Dotmaster page).

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}}

Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with Template:Tlf:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|tenth}}

For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use Template:Tag thus:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}

Purpose and naming

Mnemonically, "[t]emplate [l]ink e[x]panded" (after Template loop detected: Template:Tl, "[t]emplate [l]ink").

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to ten of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "&#124;..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &#61; or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "Template:Tag" or all parameters as a string in "Template:Tag" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with Template:TagTemplate:Tag. For example:

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

  • If the only parameter supplied is Template:Param, i.e. a template's name, Template:Tlf's output is the same as Template loop detected: Template:Tl – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
    • Template:Tc produces: Template loop detected: Template:Tl
    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}.

Template-linking templates

Template:Template-linking templates

produces: Template:Example (talk⧼dot-separator⧽links⧼dot-separator⧽edit)

Note: This documentation for Template loop detected: Template:Tlx is also transcluded by its derivatives Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx (editTemplate:Dotmaster page).

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}}

Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with Template:Tlf:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|tenth}}

For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use Template:Tag thus:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}

Purpose and naming

Mnemonically, "[t]emplate [l]ink e[x]panded" (after Template loop detected: Template:Tl, "[t]emplate [l]ink").

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to ten of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "&#124;..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &#61; or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "Template:Tag" or all parameters as a string in "Template:Tag" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with Template:TagTemplate:Tag. For example:

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

Parameters

  • If the only parameter supplied is Template:Param, i.e. a template's name, Template:Tlf's output is the same as Template loop detected: Template:Tl – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
    • Template:Tc produces: Template loop detected: Template:Tl
    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

Template:Para

For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as: Template:Para (Meta), Template:Para (WikiQuote), Template:Para (WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.

Template:Para

For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as: Template:Para (German), Template:Para (Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.

Documentation

Template loop detected: Template:Tl is a generalization of Template loop detected: Template:Tl, Template loop detected: Template:Tl etc., with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as " { ", " | ", " } " and links can be hard to read when not monospaced (and hard to click on; for uses like {{!}}, see Template loop detected: Template:Tl, which makes the click target bigger).

Usage

{{tlx|Templatename}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10&#124;more}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param&#61;value}}

There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.

Examples

    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

Template:Para

For an interwiki link to other sister projects, such as: Template:Para (Meta), Template:Para (WikiQuote), Template:Para (WikiSource), etc, facilitating interwiki template documentation and/or discussion.

Template:Para

For a link to Wikipedias in other languages, such as: Template:Para (German), Template:Para (Swedish), etc, facilitating cross-language template documentation and/or discussion.

Documentation

Template loop detected: Template:Tl is a generalization of Template loop detected: Template:Tl, Template loop detected: Template:Tl etc., with output that is arguably more legible. This depends on the browser, but narrow gaps between characters such as " { ", " | ", " } " and links can be hard to read when not monospaced (and hard to click on; for uses like {{!}}, see Template loop detected: Template:Tl, which makes the click target bigger).

Usage

{{tlx|Templatename}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
{{tlx|Templatename|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10&#124;more}}
{{tlx|Templatename|param&#61;value}}

There are up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template.

Examples

Note
At the en.wikipedia and Meta sites, X0, X1, X2, ... X9 are sandbox templates for experimentation on involved templates that need be in template space. An auto-cleansing software facility exists that might be used to duplicate the facility on other sister projects.

Template-linking templates

Template:Template-linking templates

produces: Template:Example (talk⧼dot-separator⧽links⧼dot-separator⧽edit)

Note: This documentation for Template loop detected: Template:Tlx is also transcluded by its derivatives Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx, Template loop detected: Template:Tlx (editTemplate:Dotmaster page).

This template is used to show example template usage without expanding the template itself.

Basic use

(Note: In the following examples, ellipses (groups of three dots) indicate where parameters have been omitted.)

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first parameter|second parameter|third|...|tenth}}

Where parameters might contain one or more equals-signs ("="), replace each equals-sign with Template:Tlf:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|first{{=}}something|second|third{{=}}something|...|tenth}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first=something|second|third=something|...|tenth}}

For more than ten parameters, possibly also containing equals-signs, use Template:Tag thus:

{{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Template|<nowiki>''first''|''second''|''third=something''|...|''999th''</nowiki>}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Template|first|second|third=something|...|999th}}

Purpose and naming

Mnemonically, "[t]emplate [l]ink e[x]panded" (after Template loop detected: Template:Tl, "[t]emplate [l]ink").

This template allows an example of calling a template, accompanied by one or more parameters, to be displayed without also causing the template to be called.

Up to ten of the template's parameters (numbered or nowiki-keywords) may be displayed as placeholders, while more than over 10 parameters can be displayed using a coded vertical-bar (as in "&#124;..."). A keyword parameter can be used with equals code &#61; or {{=}} or in nowiki-text: "Template:Tag" or all parameters as a string in "Template:Tag" tags; see Examples at bottom. For more details, see this talk page.

Exceptions

If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really not be used, and just hardcode the usage with Template:TagTemplate:Tag. For example:

Template:Tag.

If a vertical display, with parameters on their own lines, is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with Template:Tag.

Parameters

  • If the only parameter supplied is Template:Param, i.e. a template's name, Template:Tlf's output is the same as Template loop detected: Template:Tl – i.e. a link within braces – but in a monospaced font:
    • Template:Tc produces: Template loop detected: Template:Tl
    • Template:Tc produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tl}}
Template:Tlf will also not take nor display additional parameters.
Named parameters

Template:Para

Setting this parameter to any non-blank value will prefix the string subst: linked to Help:Substitution. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted. For example, {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlx|Welcome|3=subst=Y}} produces: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|Welcome|subst=Y}}. This is similar to the action of the {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs}} template: {{tlxTemplate:\sandbox|tlxs|Welcome}} produces: Template:Tlxs.

For a comparison, see Template talk:Lts.

templates control columns of text on a page:
  • {{col-begin}}: starts a table (followed by {{col-break}} for 1st column)
  • {{col-break}}: triggers the start of each column
  • {{col-end}}: ends the multi-column table.

The widths of columns can be specified by using various additional codes. See below for examples.
