    But {{{1|}}} will evaluate to the empty string (a false value) because the vertical bar or pipe character, "|", immediately following the parameter name specifies a default value (here an empty string because there is nothing between the pipe and the first closing curly brace) as a "fallback" value to be used if the parameter is undefined.
