Threading of replies on talk pages is done using indentation and lists. This template is used for outdenting a reply on a talk page when indentation gets too deep.
Usage
Template:Tlc or Template:Tlc. Integer examples: Template:Tlc, Template:Tlc, Template:Tlc. Indentation examples: Template:Tlc, Template:Tlc, Template:Tlc.
Parameters
|1=indent- Supports two modes: literal indentation or an integer. In literal indentation mode the value may contain
:(indents),*(unnumbered list), and#(numbered list). It is recommended to copy the colons, asterisks, and hashes from the start of the previous message. An integer value is interpreted as number or indents (:). Magnitude of a negative integer specifies the width of indentation (same as positive integer with|reverse=y). Default value is10. Supported range is from −40 to 40. |2=y- Set it to add a link to Wikipedia:Indentation#Outdenting. Template:Tlc produces:
|r=y(aliases|reverse=y,|indent=y,|in=y)- Reverses the outdentation to become indentation and vice versa.
Examples
With indentation wikitext
:::: Previous post, indented with four colons.
{{outdent|::::}} New post.

- Previous post, indented with four colons.
New post.
Positive integer
:::::: Previous post, indented 6 levels.
{{outdent|6}} New post.

To not outdent all the way to the left margin, indent the Template:Tl template itself using colons:
:::::: Previous post, indented 6 levels.
:: {{outdent|4}} New post.
Displays as:
- Previous post, indented 6 levels.
- New post.
Indent
Using |reverse=y:
:::::: Previous post, indented 6 levels.
:: {{outdent|4}} Start of a new post indented 2 levels using a bar of length 6 − 2 = 4.
:: {{outdent|5|reverse=yes}}
::::::: Indent to indentation level 7 using a reversed bar of length 7 − 2 = 5.
Displays as:
- Previous post, indented 6 levels.
- Start of a new post indented 2 levels using a bar of length 6 − 2 = 4.
- Indent to indentation level 7 using a reversed bar of length 7 − 2 = 5.
Or with a negative integer:
:::::: Original conversation.
:::::: {{outdent|-3}}
::::::::: Afterthought.
::::::: {{outdent|2}}
::::::: Continuation of original conversation.
Displays as:
- Original conversation.
