[Solved] I can't get a template to work

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?tit … &section=8

See above the red template. I have also tried the simple note template following exactly the coding. Where is the mistake?
In the same section a note template is working. I've been busting my head all day but can't work this out...

Re: [Solved] I can't get a template to work

See Help:Template:

Note: If you use the equal sign ( = ) inside a template with numbered parameters, MediaWiki will break the template's output. You need to enclose the equal sign (or the entire block of text) in <nowiki> tags like so:

{{Codeline|<nowiki>variable = value</nowiki>}}

Alternatively, treat the parameter number as a named parameter, as in:

{{Codeline|1=variable = value}}

This is a technical limitation that you should keep in mind while using templates.
