{ { Trim leading | < input> | < prefix> } }
Trims up to six instances of < prefix> (such as: 0 or "anti-") from the beginning of < input> . < Prefix> is set to "0" by default (for removing leading zeroes from numbers). Template will not properly work beyond the first whitespace in the input.
New code should strongly consider { { #invoke:string |replace} } or { { #invoke:MultiReplace |main} } . For backward compatibility, both the input and pattern string are trimmed of surrounding whitespace before processing begins. This means you cannot remove three instances of "the " from "the the the thing"; instead you will remove one instance of "the".
String-handling templates
(help page)
By position of character(s) { { #invoke:string |sub} } { { str sub new } } Select a substring based on starting and ending index counted in either direction. { { str left } } Keep the first N characters of a string, or duplicate it to N characters. { { str crop } } Return all but the last N characters of a string. { { str index } } Return the N-th character of a string.
{ { str right } } Return substring starting at N-th character to end of string. { { str rightc } } Return the last N characters of a string; or a given value if empty. { { str rightmost } } Return last N characters of a string. { { str sub old } } Return substring of given length starting at N-th character.
By checking Dedicated { { ship prefix } } Returns the length of a ship's name prefix, if listed (ship names). { { title year } } Returns the 3-or-4-digit year from a pagename, if any. { { title decade } } Returns the 4-digit decade (e.g. "1740s") from a pagename, if any. { { title number } } Returns any number from a pagename.
Insertion, replacement and length
{ { loop } } Repeat character string a specified number of times. { { replace } } Returns the string, after replacing all occurrences of a specified string with another string. { { str rep } } Returns the string, after replacing the first occurrence of a specified string with another string. { { digits } } Returns the string, after removing all characters that are not digits 0–9 { { Plain text } } { { Nowiki } } Strips wikicode from a string.
{ { str len } } Returns a string's length. { { str ≥ len } } Check if a string is "longer or equally long" or "shorter" than a given length. { { str ≤ len } } Check if a string is "shorter or equally long" or "longer" than a given length. { { str ≠ len } } Check if a string is "not equal" or "equal" to a given length.
Analysis and searching
{ { str endswith } } Check if a string ends with a given string. { { str find } } { { strfind short } } Returns the numerical location of a given string in a string. { { in string } } Returns optional string when given string is not found { { str find0 } } Zero-based substring search. { { str count } } Count the number of occurrences of a pattern within a string.
{ { a or an } } Takes a noun and produces the appropriate indefinite article, based on whether the first letter is a vowel. { { Isnumeric } } Returns number when true, blank when not numeric. { { str letter } } Returns the number of letters that begin a string. { { str number } } Returns the number of numbers that begin a string.
