Template:Example

An example!

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.

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.
