Template:Strong
strongly emphasized text
Documentation
This is a convenient template wrapper for the <strong>...</strong>
HTML element, the proper markup for strongly emphasized text, as distinct from purely typographic use of boldface (<b>...</b>
or, in wikimarkup, '''...'''
). The latter is for section headings, table headers, and other purposes that are not semantic strong emphasis.
This template should be used very sparingly, as a whole lot of boldface is distracting, and trying to emphasize everything reduces the actual effect of emphasizing anything. Most emphasis should be done with the regular (italic) emphasis template, {{em}}
.
Usage:
{{strong|the strongly emphasized text here}}
If the content contains a =
character, the parameter must be named (as |1=
):
{{strong|1=Boldface != emphasis in HTML.}}
