Template:Str ≤ len/doc


 * Description
 * This template helps other templates check if a string is "shorter or equally long" vs. "longer" than a given length.


 * Syntax
 * Detailed parameter explanation:


 * Empty or undefined strings are considered to be of 0 length. Strings longer than 500 are not truncated to 500.
 * Length values below 0 are considered to be 0. Length values above 500 are considered to be 500.
 * Thus a string longer than 500 is always considered to be "longer", even if it is compared with the "correct" length value.


 * Sample output
 * This template takes 3 to 4 unnamed parameters. Here is how to check if the string "abcde" is 4 characters or less:


 * Which returns this:
 * Templates have a problem to handle parameter data that contains equal signs " ". But that is easily solved by using numbered parameters. Here we check if the string "ab=cde" is 100 characters or less:


 * Which returns this:


 * It probably is a good habit to always use the numbered parameters, since you might not know beforehand exactly how the data will look that your template will feed to this meta-template.
