-* By default, the discussion is directed to the talk page of the page on which this tag is placed.  Optionally, {{para|discuss}} can be added to direct the discussion to another page. Example: {{tlx|split|discuss{{=}}Talk:{{var|Foobar}}#Split proposal}}, produces:
-{{split|discuss=Talk:Foobar#Split proposal}}
-* Optionally, you can include suggested titles for between 2 and 20 new pages as parameters. Example: {{tlx|split|{{var|New title 1}}|{{var|New title 2}}}}, produces:
