Template:Alert

NOTE: This template should be used only for alerts or warnings. Use Template:Instruction or Template:Advice for instruction sets or other essential/very important information that needs to be emphasized, but doesn't require a caution or warning about the consequences of non-adherence. For the current list of available templates, see Templates.

General usage:

Example:

Typing this:

will produce this:

Special cases:

If the text must contain the equals sign "=", use &quot;1=&quot; after the pipe symbol "|" thus:

If other essential symbols in the text still cause it to display incorrectly, try enclosing the text after the pipe inside      tags. This solution would also work with the above example:

However,     tags will not work if you need to use another template inside the Alert template, as they will prevent the other templates being parsed. In this case, the only solution is to precede the entire text string after the first pipe by 1=, like this:

which produces:

Note also that in this example the second template must itself contain the 1= prefix, as its URL contains an equals sign.

Ignore the following, it's only a representation of formatting and a parameter dummy.
