Template:Strikethroughdiv/doc

{{Strikethroughdiv}} is a sibling template to {{Strikethrough}}, intended for use with block-level elements. This template draws a line through a block of text that is its parameter. This is done by embedding the parameter in an HTML <div>...</div> element, producing output such as:

• This, i.e. bulleted text with a line drawn through its middle.
• And a second line, also contained within the Strikethroughdiv template

Outside articles, it can be used to mark something as no longer accurate or relevant without removing it from view. Do not use it, however, to indicate document edits; to mark a span of text as having been removed from a document, use <del>...</del>. This template can be used to wrap around multiple paragraphs or even multiple bullet points. To wrap a simple string of text, {{Strikethrough}} is recommended.

Usage recommendation

Because blocks of text are likely to contain an = character, it is recommended that the content of {{Strikethroughdiv}} be preceded by |1 =, as shown in the example below.

Example

{{strikethroughdiv|1= * This * That * And another thing}}
