This template serves one function, which is to keep track of a counter on the page. Keep in mind that using ordered lists (starting a line of text with a <code>#</code>) is likely preferable over using this template in many situations.

The template takes an optional first parameter that specifies the (''case-sensitive'') counter name. This allows multiple parallel counters to be used on a single page. The default counter name is <code>0</code>.

The template also takes a <code>reset</code> parameter which, when set to anything but <code>no</code>, will reset the counter. If this parameter is omitted this does not happen.

<pre>
<poem>
{{Counter}} {{Counter}} {{Counter}},
it's easy as {{Counter|reset=yes}} {{Counter}} {{Counter}},
as simple as {{Counter|foo}} {{Counter|foo}} {{Counter|foo}}.
That's how easy counters can be.
Limitless (even more than {{Counter}}{{Counter|foo}}{{Counter|Foo}}) possibilities!
