:The note text inside the box. By default, this text is rendered in italics, but all other wiki-formatting (bold, text color, links, etc) work as normal. If the text you would like to use include an equals sign (<code>=</code>), 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.

:Add the parameters <code>italics = no</code> to the template to render the text as non-italic (i.e. normal text). Use this parameter if you would like to have more control over the text formatting (for instance, if you would like to use italics selectively in your note). In most cases, you can omit this parameter.
