Template documentation
Template documentation- Description
- For outdenting a reply on a talk page when indention gets too deep. Indenting on talk pages is done using a colon character (:) to produce tabs; this template produces a connector bar and initial text to indicate an outdent, based on the number of colons used in the previous indent
- Usage
- To outdent posts, insert the number of colons that were used for indenting in the previous post, or use an integer value for that number.
::::This is the previous post, indented 4 levels
{{Outdent|::::}}start of a new post
displays as
- This is the previous post, indented 4 levels
start of a new post
::::::This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
{{Outdent|6}}start of a new post
displays as
- This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
start of a new post
- You can also have the template automatically add a linked tag, by adding any second parameter (its specific value is discarded):
::::::This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
{{Outdent|6|link}}start of a new post
displays as
- This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
(outdent) start of a new post
- To not outdent all the way to the left margin, the outdent template itself can be indented using one or more colons:
::::::This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
::{{Outdent|4}}start of a new post
displays as
- This is the previous post, indented 6 levels
- ┌────────────────┘
start of a new post
- Do not use subst: with this template.
- This template is contained in the CSS class "outdent-template". Users who would prefer not to see the template can add the following line to their custom CSS (by default: Special:MyPage/monobook.css):
- span.outdent-template { display: none; }
