Implements {{Template link general}} and other templates in its family
Basic usage
{{#invoke:template link general|main}}
This module is used by {{template link general}} and related templates to display links to templates. It is similar to {{tl}} but with additional formatting options and the ability to include parameters in the display. See Template:Slink for the full list, which can be enabled by passing any value to them (such as "on", "yes", etc).
