This is a list of variables that can be used in the wikitext. The way they are rendered depends on the time, on the project, or on the page in which it occurs.
On the left is the variable, on the right how it is rendered at this time, in this project, on this page.
Constant, only depending on the project and parameters

| {{CURRENTDAYNAME}} | dödel |
| {{CURRENTYEAR}} | 2024 |
| {{CURRENTTIME}} | 13:54 |
| {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} | 39,249 |
NUMBEROFARTICLES: number of pages in the main namespace which contain a link and are not a redirect, i.e. number of articles, stubs containing a link, and disambiguation pages.
Depending on page
redakön| {{NAMESPACE}} | Geban |
| {{PAGENAME}} | Patrick |
When used in a template, these two variables refer to the referring page, not the template page.
Examples of combinations
redakön| {{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|action=edit}} | //vo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Geban:Patrick&action=edit |
| [[{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}_1]] | Geban:Patrick_1 |
| {{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}_1}} | //vo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geban:Patrick_1 |
In a template, for a link to a page which depends on a template parameter, the external link style is used even for internal links, to avoid that the system links to the edit page even if the page exists. To construct the external link, variables can also be useful.
