Template talk:If

I thought the whole reason for the parserfunctions was to do away with the server loading that such logic templates created. My understand is that this sort of logic template is deprecated for that reason, in favor of the following existence test. That is what is documented on meta as best practice.

= undefined

Or am I mistaken about the performance hit/ what this template does / what is considered best practice? ~  Ph l o x  03:36, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
