As of 2014 (verison 1.24) this was supposed to be built-in a "magic word" ... but for some reason it's not (even though we're using version 1.3). Since it's not, this template (based on the template MediaWiki used before the magic word was added) is used here instead.

All this template does is replace itself with a single "pipe" or "|" character, but this is valuable as it allows templates to take other templates as arguments. Without using this, the inner template's "|" will be counted as part of the outer template, breaking things. If this template is used instead of the "|" symbol (in the inner template), both templates can still work together.
