Much less efficient string length templates:


* {{tl|str len full}} – Can count up to 500 in length. Returns 500 for strings that are too long.
* {{tl|str len}} – Can count up to 500 in length. Returns 500 for strings that are too long.
* {{tl|strlen}} – Can only count up to 64 in length. Returns 64 for strings that are too long.
* {{tl|strlen}} – Can only count up to 64 in length. Returns 64 for strings that are too long.
* {{tl|str len}} – Can only count up to 80 in length. Returns an error message for strings longer than 80. And it counts any whitespace that surrounds its input.

Easy to use and efficient string length comparison templates:

  • {{str ≥ len}} – To check if a string is "longer or equally long" vs. "shorter" than a given length.
  • {{str ≤ len}} – To check if a string is "shorter or equally long" vs. "longer" than a given length.
  • {{str ≠ len}} – To check if a string is "not equal" vs. "equal" to a given length.
  • {{str ≤ ≥ len}} – To check all three of "shorter", "equal" and "longer" at the same time.

Much less efficient string length templates:

  • {{str len}} – Can count up to 500 in length. Returns 500 for strings that are too long.
  • {{strlen}} – Can only count up to 64 in length. Returns 64 for strings that are too long.
