Usage
{{mono|text to format here}}
renders as:
Template:Ifsubsttext to format here
This template is for formatting short bits of content (the only parameter) as monospaced (nonproportional) text. It is simply a quick shorthand for the necessary CSS code. It is a replacement for <tt>...</tt>, which is an obsolete element under HTML5. (Non-conforming features)
This template should be used where the content is being rendered in monospaced text for purely stylistic/display reasons, where this display has no particular semantic significance.
It should not be used to indicate information with these semantics:
- source code, use {{code}} or
<code>...</code>instead - variables or variable input, use {{var}} or
<var>...</var>instead - keyboard input, use {{kbd}} or
<kbd>...</kbd>instead - sample output, use {{samp}} or
<samp>...</samp>instead
It cannot be used to mark up multiple paragraphs, sections or other block elements, as it uses <span>, which is an inline element. Use {{monodiv}} and {{pre}} for multiple blocks of text, or use multiple instances of {{Mono}} for each individual line.
When the content ends with a single closing curly brace (}), the content should be followed by <nowiki/>, for example, to mark up {foo}, use {{mono|{foo}<nowiki/>}} or {{mono|<nowiki>{foo}</nowiki>}}.
If the content contains pipe characters (|) not surrounded by <nowiki>...</nowiki>, they must be escaped with | or {{!}}.
Parameters
There are two parameters:
|1=or unnamed- The content to format as monospaced. If the content contains a
=character, the parameter must be numbered or the template will break. (The parameter does not need to be numbered if the=character is surrounded by<nowiki>...</nowiki>, or if it is escaped as=.) For backward compatibility with an old, merged-in template, this parameter can also be called|2=. |needs_review=yes- Used (e.g. by bots or AWB scripts) to indicate replacement of now-obsolete
<tt>...</tt>markup with{{mono|...}}markup. This template displays nothing and presently does no categorization, though a cleanup category can be created if necessary. It indicates that the markup may need to be changed to something more semantically meaningful, such as<code>...</code>,<samp>...</samp>, or<kbd>...</kbd>.
