Template:Small
{{{1}}}
This template is used on approximately 360,000 pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to it should first be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see COinS in Wikipedia. |
As of June 10, 2016, a rule has been added to MediaWiki:Common.css, so now <small> consistently renders at a 85% size. This template remains as a convenience wrapper. |
Usage
This template is a replacement for <small>...</small>
.
The only parameter is the content and may contain templates, images, etc., if a block needs to be wrapped in this template and contains such elements. Note that if the =
character appears in the content, the parameter must be explicitly specified as |1=
.
- Thus {{small|1=3 + 2 = 5}} produces 3 + 2 = 5
