Template documentation

{{\}} is the "slash" template, which produces " /", i.e. a non-breaking space followed by a (forward-)slash character. It is most often used to indicate alternatives within a (horizontal) list of items, such as:

item 1 / item 2 / item 3 / item 4 / item 5

The template is named using the backslash character ("/") as slashes cannot be used in page names.

Usage

To maintain good linewrapping, there should be no space between the template and whatever precedes it. There's also no need to include a space after the template, although doing so should not affect its function.

[[Clause]]{{\}}[[Shion]]  ...produces...  Clause / Shion

If linewrapping (i.e. a line-break) is required, the template ensures it occurs after the slash, not before:

Clause /

Shion
