{{Documentation subpage}}

The templates in this series are designed to be used in a table to make a cell with text in that cell, with an appropriately colored background.

For example, {{tlc|active}} makes a cell with a green check mark and background. The text in the cell is taken from the first parameter; {{active|Live}} would output "Live" otherwise it defaults to "Active". Most templates allow editors to override the default text in this way.

{{fcb|red|Important}}: If you want to use other attributes for the table cells, ''e.g.'' {{code|colspan}}, {{code|rowspan}}, or {{code|style}}, they need to be put before the template call, and there must be '''no vertical bar (aka pipe) <code>|</code>''' in-between them:

{| class=wikitable align=right
!{{Active|Yes}} || {{Defunct|No}} || rowspan=2 {{Unknown|Unsure}}
|-
|colspan=2 style="border:solid 3px Maroon" {{Unknown|-}}
|}
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">...
!{{Active|Yes}} ||{{Defunct|No}} ||rowspan=2 {{Unknown|Unsure}}
|-
|colspan=2 style="border:solid 3px Maroon" {{Unknown|-}}
...
</syntaxhighlight>
