The second (optional) parameter is a value for the first example parameter; or, if the first parameter is empty, the second illustrates an example ~~[[Help:Templates#Parameters\|~~unnamed parameter]] (which in some cases may serve as a pre-defined parameter that takes no <code>{{!}}{{=}}{{var\|value}}</code> after it, e.g. the {{para\|\|section}} in {{tlx\|More citations needed\|section}}).		It must have at least one or two parameters itself. The first parameter is the name of the example parameter to display (this may be ''empty'', but it must be ''present''). The second (optional) parameter is a value for the first example parameter; or, if the first parameter is empty, the second illustrates an example unnamed parameter (which in some cases may serve as a pre-defined parameter that takes no <code>{{!}}{{=}}{{var\|value}}</code> after it, e.g. the {{para\|\|section}} in {{tlx\|More citations needed\|section}}).

	* {{para\|mxt\|y}} or {{para\|green\|y}} – to apply the style ({{mxt\|green monospaced text}}) that would be applied by {{tlx\|mxt}}. Since {{tnull\|para}} contains {{tag\|code\|o}} markup inside its source which would override the color of {{tnull\|mxt}}, these parameters can be used when {{tnull\|para}} is used for text inside a passage of {{tnull\|mxt}} content.

	* {{para\|style}} – to apply arbitrary ~~[[Wikipedia:Css\|~~CSS style]], for some specialized contextual purpose. Example: {{para\|style\|background-color: Yellow;}}. Any <code>color</code>, <code>background-color</code>, or <code>border</code> specified here will ''override'' those provided by any of the above parameters, regardless of the order in which the parameters are given in the template. As this template uses a {{tag\|span\|o}} element, only CSS that can apply to inline elements (not block elements) will work.
