== Documentation ==
{{documentation}}
As the name suggests, this template produces a colored box, which is used when you want to give an example on a page. You can use common wiki-formatting (eg bold, links) if you wish. The formatting of this template is kept subtle on purpose, so as not to interfere too much with the general flow of a page (if you want a stronger emphasis for your text, you can use <code>{{t|note box}}</code> or even <code>{{t|important note box}}</code>).
</noinclude>
 
If the text you would like to use include an equals sign (=), you need to explicitly declare your text as a numbered parameter (i.e. put <code>1=</code> before your example text), otherwise the template will display nothing.
 
=== Examples ===
 
<code><nowiki>{{example|An example to ''illustrate'' my article with a link to the [[Venture]].}}</nowiki></code> gives:
{{example|An example to ''illustrate'' my article with a link to the [[Venture]].}}
 
<code><nowiki>{{example|How not to put the formula 2+2=4 into an example.}}</nowiki></code> gives:
{{example|How not to put the formula 2+2=4 into an example.}}
 
<code><nowiki>{{example|1=How to put the formula 2+2=4 into an example.}}</nowiki></code> gives:
{{example|1=How to put the formula 2+2=4 into an example.}}
