The templates P1 and P2 simply return the first respectively second unnamed input parameter respectively. For example:

These templates can be used inside other templates as an alternative to the Template:Pf parser function, to switch between outputs based on whether the input is "1" or "2":

Using {{#switch}}, this syntax is equivalent to

except that the parser function strips whitespace between parameters whereas the templates don't.
