![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Strikethroughdiv. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
((Strikethroughdiv)) is a sibling template to ((Strikethrough)), intended for use with block-level elements. This template draws a line through a block of text that is its parameter. This is done by embedding the parameter in an HTML <div>...</div>
element, producing output such as:
Outside articles, it can be used to mark something as no longer accurate or relevant without removing it from view. Do not use it, however, to indicate document edits; to mark a span of text as having been removed from a document, use <del>...</del>
. This template can be used to wrap around multiple paragraphs or even multiple bullet points. To wrap a simple string of text, ((Strikethrough)) is recommended.
Because blocks of text are likely to contain an = character, it is recommended that the content of ((Strikethroughdiv)) be preceded by |1=
, as shown in the example below.
