![]() | This template is used on approximately 106,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |

This template is used to produce a simple loop. It is based on Module:String, and there is no limit to the number of iterations it can perform.
((loop|times to repeat|string))
If string contains an equals sign, you must put "|2=string" instead of "|string".
Code | Output |
---|---|
((loop|4|n))
|
nnnn |
((loop|25|test me))
|
test metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest metest me |
((#expr:2((loop|50|*2))))

((loop|((#expr:7*2))| '''MUDA))!
|
MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA! |
When the string being replicated includes "=", we have to precede the second parameter with "2=
", or use ((=)).
Code | Output |
---|---|
((loop|9|2==))
|
========= |
((loop|9|((=))))
|
========= |
Surrounding whitespace is always stripped; you must use ((#invoke:string|rep)) instead to preserve it.
Code | Output |
---|---|
((#invoke:String|rep| hello |3))
|
hello hello hello |
((loop|3| hello ))
|
hellohellohello" |
