So, <nowiki> should work perfectly fine in template parameters.

Unless you mean you want most wikitext to work, just not }} and friends. In which case there are two things you could do: either have a separate template containing just the characters (there is a built in template:! Where {{!}} Puts out a |). Or you can use entities e.g. &#123; instead of { and &#125; instead of } and &#124; instead of |.

Hi all,

I'm having trouble with user input potentially containing wikitext

characters such as }}, {{, |, etc. I'd prefer not to restrict user input and would hope that there's a solution like <nowiki> but for use in templates.

I've tried wrapping the value on the main page with no wiki.

            {{AI Comment
                |Comment author = Gjgeorge
                |Comment date = 2018-02-13T21:45:25.260Z
                |Comment text = <nowiki>update }} ! | 1 text</nowiki>
                |Comment uuid = b8558518-2127-4207-b673-8ac4e5730347
            }}

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks,

Garrett
