'''Magic words''' are strings of text that MediaWiki associates with a return value or function, such as time, site details, or page names.
{|style="margin:0 auto 6px; border-bottom:solid 2px #BBB; font-family:verdana; {{switch|{{PAGENAME}}|case: {{{location}}}=|case: The Rooster/Sandpit/10=|default=display:none}}" id="{{{x}}}-{{{y}}}" cellspacing=0
 
|style="width:160px; vertical-align:top; font-size:2em; text-align:center; {{RevivePointStatus | {{{status|unknown}}} }}"|
There are three general types of magic words:
{{{status|unknown}}}
*'''[[#Behavior switches|Behavior switches]]''': these are uppercase words surrounded by double underscores, ''e.g.'' '''__FOO__'''
|style="width:440px; background:#EEE; padding:6px 12px"|<div style="float:right; font-size:11px">'''([http://ud-malton.info/revive.php?State=Search&X={{{x}}}&Y={{{y}}}&Distance=1 {{{x|0}}}, {{{y|0}}}])''' [[List of Revivification Points|(list of RPs)]] [[Example Page|(update)]]</div>'''<big>[[{{{location|Example Page}}}]]</big>'''<br>Maintained by:{{{group|Local survivors.}}}<br>{{{comment|No comments}}}<div style="text-align:right; font-size:10px">{{{timestamp|}}}</div>
*'''[[#Variables|Variables]]''': these are uppercase words surrounded by double braces, ''e.g.'' '''<tt><nowiki>{{FOO}}</nowiki></tt>'''. As such, they look a lot like [[Help:Templates|templates]].
*'''[[#Parser functions|Parser functions]]''': these take parameters and are either of the form '''<tt><nowiki>{{foo:...}}</nowiki></tt>''' or '''<tt><nowiki>{{#foo:...}}</nowiki></tt>'''. See also [[Help:Extension:ParserFunctions]].
 
Page-dependent magic words will affect or return data about the ''current'' page, even if the word is added through a transcluded template or included system message.
 
==Behavior switches==
A behavior switch controls the layout or behaviour of the page and can often be used to specify desired omissions and inclusions in the content.

|-
| <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>
| Hides the table of contents (TOC).

|
|-
| <nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki>

|-
| <nowiki>__NOCONTENTCONVERT__</nowiki><br /><nowiki>__NOCC__</nowiki>

| {{mediawiki|rev:37928|1.13+}}
|}
|}
==Variables==
Variables return information about the current page, wiki, or date. Their syntax is similar to [[Help:Templates|templates]]. Variables marked as "<span style="background:#FED;">'''[expensive]'''</span>" are tracked by the software, and the number that can be included on a page is limited.
If a template name conflicts with a variable, the variable will be used (so to transclude the template [[{{ns:10}}:PAGENAME]] you would need to write <code><tt><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{ns:10}}:PAGENAME<nowiki>}}</nowiki></tt></code>). In some cases, adding parameters will force the parser to treat a variable as a template; for example, <code><tt><nowiki>{{CURRENTDAYNAME|x}}</nowiki></tt></code> transcludes [[{{ns:10}}:CURRENTDAYNAME]].
{{admin tip|You can configure the number of expensive parser functions allowed on a page using the {{mediawiki|Manual:$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit|$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit}} configuration setting.}}
===Date & time===
The following variables return the current date and time according to the user's timezone [[Special:Preferences|preferences]], defaulting to the UTC timezone.
Due to MediaWiki and browser caching, these variables frequently show when the page was ''cached'' rather than the current time.

|
| Used for categorizing pages, sets a default [[Help:Categories|category sort key]]. For example if you put <tt><nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT:Smith, John}}</nowiki></tt> at the end of [[John Smith]], the page would be sorted under "S" by default in categories.
| 1.10+
|}
===Statistics===
Numbers returned by these variables normally contain separators (commas or spaces, depending on the local language), but can return raw numbers with the ":R" flag (for example, <code><tt><nowiki>{{NUMBEROFPAGES}}</nowiki></tt></code> &rarr; {{NUMBEROFPAGES}} and <code><tt><nowiki>{{NUMBEROFPAGES:R}}</nowiki></tt></code> &rarr; {{NUMBEROFPAGES:R}}). Use "|R" for magic words that require a parameter like PAGESINCATEGORY (for example <code><tt><nowiki>{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Help}}</nowiki></tt></code> and <code><tt><nowiki>{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Help|R}}</nowiki></tt></code>).

| 1.7+
|-
| <tt><nowiki>{{TALKPAGENAME}}</nowiki></tt>

The <tt><nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}</nowiki></tt> and <tt><nowiki>{{SUBPAGENAME}}</nowiki></tt> magic words only work in namespaces that have subpages enabled.  See {{mediawiki|Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages}} for information on enabling subpages.
The following are URL-encoded equivalents:
* <tt><nowiki>{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
* <tt><nowiki>{{PAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
* <tt><nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
* <tt><nowiki>{{SUBPAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
* <tt><nowiki>{{SUBJECTPAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
* <tt><nowiki>{{TALKPAGENAMEE}}</nowiki></tt>
As of {{mediawiki|rev:46662|1.15+}}, these can all take a parameter, allowing specification of the page to be operated on, instead of just the current page:
* <tt><nowiki>{{PAGENAME:Template:Main Page}}</nowiki></tt> &rarr; '''{{PAGENAME:Template:Main Page}}'''

* <tt><nowiki>{{NAMESPACE:Template:Main Page}}</nowiki></tt> &rarr; '''{{NAMESPACE:Template:Main Page}}'''
==Parser functions==
Parser functions are very similar to variables, but take one or more parameters (technically, any magic word that takes a parameter is a parser function), and the name is usually prefixed with a hash to distinguish them from possible templates)
This page only describes parser functions that are integral to the MediaWiki software. Other parser functions may be added by MediaWiki extensions such as the {{mediawiki|Extension:ParserFunctions|ParserFunctions extension}}. For those see [[Help:Extension:ParserFunctions]].

Note: In the example above, "your pref" refers to your date preference on the current MediaWiki wiki only.
| Formats an unlinked date based on user "Date format" preference. For logged-out users and those who have not set a date format in their preferences, dates can be given a default: <tt>mdy</tt>, <tt>dmy</tt>, <tt>ymd</tt>, <tt>ISO 8601</tt> (all case sensitive). If a format is not specified or is invalid, the input format is used as a default. If the supplied date is not recognized as a valid date, it is rendered unchanged.<br/><small>{{warning}}Although the ISO 8601 standard requires that dates be in the Gregorian calendar, the ISO parameter in this function will still format dates that fall outside the usual Gregorian range (e.g. dates prior to 1583).</small>
