Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Misplaced Pages:COinS.

This template provides a way to wrap wiki markup, or plain text, in (single) square brackets. More importantly, it helps to keep the markup free of line noise and thus easier to edit.

Usage

{{bracket|]}} → [Misplaced Pages:Example]
{{bracket|]}} → [17th district of Vienna [Austria]]
{{bracket|plain text}} → [plain text]
{{bracket}} → [{{{1}}}]
{{bracket| spaced }} → [ spaced ]

Function

This template is a simple wrapper around the [ and ] HTML entities that produce starting and ending brackets, respectively.

The template cannot output just an ending bracket. You will have to use ] to produce the "]" ending bracket.

This template is not necessary in Citation Style 1 templates. You can simply use square brackets, and they will be treated as ordinary text (and not wiki markup) when it constructs links.
