Hi Mat

I had a quick look and had a few thoughts:

* The table doesn’t distinguish between using a syntax as an attribute value 
vs. freestanding — for example, freestanding double curly brace transclusion 
will wikify the target tiddler, while attribute double curly brace transclusion 
will just return the raw text
* We should link to the docs for each wikitext construction shown
* The shorthand syntax misses out transclusions with the title omitted (ie. 
{{!!field}} and {{!!field||template}})
* The shorthand syntax distinguishes between <<macro>> and <<variable>> when 
they are actually the same thing
* The shorthand syntax doesn’t show named macro parameters
* The <<__parameter__>> example is a bit misleading because there are two 
things going on: the automatic conversion of a parameter into a variable name, 
and the usage of that variable name with the double angle bracket syntax. If a 
macro transcludes a tiddler than that tiddler would “see” the double 
underscored parameters just like any other inherited variable

Don’t be discouraged — it’s a great idea to present the options like this, it 
acts like another index on the underlying reference docs.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
