{{mlx|Map params|map}} maps parameters received by a function to wikitext using {{para|1}} or to a template call using {{para|call}}.

== Usage ==
<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:Map params|main|''parameters''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>

== Parameters ==
=== Input ===
* {{para|prefix''n''}} - The prefix of the parameters to process. All registered prefixes will be checked to determine if a number is present in the provided arguments. {{para|prefix1}} defaults to processing unnamed parameters.
* {{para|extra''n''}} - An extra parameter to pass to the wikitext or template being called. If the extra parameter is suffixed with a number (same as prefixed parameters but not checked to determine if a number is present), add the suffix <code>(i)</code>. For example, <code>style(i)</code>.
* {{para|sparse}} - Set to <code>yes</code> to support parameter lists with gaps. Defaults to <code>no</code>.
* {{para|optnum}} - Whether or not to support passing the first parameter without a number, i.e. allow it to be {{para|''prefix''}} rather than {{para|''prefix''1}}. Defaults to <code>yes</code>.

=== Map to ===
* {{para|1}} - The wikitext to map parameters to. Parameters are substituted with their number removed, i.e. {{para|item''n''}} becomes {{para|item}} etc. The parameter {{param|i}} is replaced with the current index and {{param|1}} is replaced with the current unnamed parameter (if applicable).
* {{para|call}} - Template to call. Parameters are passed with their number removed, i.e. {{para|item''n''}} becomes {{para|item}} etc. The parameter {{param|i}} is the current index and {{param|1}} is the current unnamed parameter (if applicable). Overrides {{para|1}}.

=== Concatenation ===
* {{para|sep}} / {{para|2}} - Separator to add between outputs. To preserve leading and tailing whitespace, {{para|2}} can be used instead, or {{para|1}} when {{para|call}} is being used.
* {{para|conj}} - Special separator to use before the final output. Outer spaces can be added with {{tlx|sp}} or <code>&#32;</code>.

=== Advanced ===
* {{para|expand}} - Whether or not to expand templates, parser functions, extension tags, etc. after substituting parameters. This is most useful when {{para|1}} is used without {{tag|nowiki}} tags and can provide a slight performance advantage. Only relevant when using {{para|1}}. Defaults to <code>yes</code>.
