Template:Template link with linked braces/doc

This template is used similarly to Template:Tl to show the name of a template with the pairs of open and close braces around it. But this variant makes the inner braces part of the link, whereas Template:Tl does not make the braces part of the link. This is to allow easier clicking of very short template names. The "Tn" name is short for Template name.

Usage

{{tn|template_name}}

Example with comparison

{{tn|!}}	produces: {{!}}
{{tl|!}}	produces: {{!}}
