Magic words (including parser functions, variables and behavior switches) are features of wiki markup that give instructions to Wikipedia's underlying MediaWiki software. For example, magic words can suppress or position the table of contents, disable indexing by external search engines, and produce output dynamically based on the current page or on user-defined conditional logic.

Parser functions can be used to selectively show or hide particular content (such as table rows) within an infobox based on the value of one or more template parameters. For example, a parameter may be designed to display only if another parameter exists. A simplistic test to display a caption only when an image is present could be:
[[:File:Wikipedesketch.png]] File:Wikipedesketch.png. You can make the link say anything you want. [[:File:Wikipedesketch.png|A cartoon centipede reads books and types on a laptop.]] A cartoon centipede reads books and types on a laptop. When the link is clicked the image is displayed with other text information at a reasonable size.
The image parameter sometimes requires the Wikipedia:Extended image syntax; other times it requires only the image file name depending on the tastes of the editor who created the infobox. An editor can determine this either by experimenting (using the "preview" function) or by consulting the infobox template documentation.

Do the same for the output of all Example-formatting templates, such as {} and {}. Apply to additional site-wide classes identified so far (e.g., .monospaced) that output as monospace.
