Template:Pipe/doc

This is the pipe meta-template. It looks like this: | This template should be used if you want to see a vertical bar character as part of the final article. To simply delay the interpretation of a vertical bar as wikitext, use.

This template uses the &amp;#124; decimal code for the vertical bar (or pipe character) so that its usage doesn't cause problems when it is used inside a template. This situation most commonly arises when the title of a cited reference contains a pipe character instead of a hyphen or dash (e.g. Xbox.com | Xbox.com Home). is easier to remember and clearer than an unadorned &amp;#124;.

Please do not use the Unicode &amp;#448; (which produces &#448;) since that does not work in all web browsers. It is also slightly smaller than &#124;.
