Template:Note box/doc

Main article: Template:Note box

Usage

This template creates a text box, which is useful if you would like to add a note into your article, drawing attention to certain details, or to better explain the context of an article or section. Keep in mind that large number of these templates can make a page look cluttered, so use them judiciously.

{{ note box | text | italics = no }}

text

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 (=), you need to explicitly declare your text as a numbered parameter (i.e. put 1= before your example text), otherwise the template will display nothing.

italics

Add the parameter italics = no 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.
