Editing Template:Ping/doc (section)

==Usage==
{| class="wikitable"
!Template !! Result
|-
|{{tlx|ping|Example}} || {{ping|Example}}
|-
|{{tlx|ping|Example|John}} || {{ping|Example|John}}
|}

=== Single recipient ===
Use the following syntax:
 <nowiki>{{ping|Username}} Message text. ~~~~</nowiki>
For example, <code>{{tlx|ping|Example}}</code> generates "@[[User:Example|Example]]:" and notifies [[User:Example|Example]]

=== Multiple recipient ===
You can reply to up to 50 people at once. Use the following syntax:
 <nowiki>{{ping|User1|User2|User3|User4|User5|User6|User7|User8|User9|User10|...}} Message text. ~~~~</nowiki>

For example, <code><nowiki>{{ping|Example|John}}</nowiki></code> will produce:

{{ping|Example|John}}

[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|20px|link=|alt=⚠]]&nbsp;'''<span style="color:red;">''Warning:''</span> If the total number of detected to-be-pinged users in an edit exceeds 50, no notifications will be delivered.''' This is a software limit, and applies to the entire edit, even if the mentions are split between multiple templates. If you need to ping more than 50 users, it will need to be spread across multiple edits, and each edit needs to add new lines and be signed by you.
