Using example-formatting templates in general
دَییشدیر | This family of templates cannot be used in mainspace (the article namespace). |
 | بو شابلوندا لوآ ایستیفاده اولونور: |
The category of example-formatting templates is used frequently in non-mainspace general help pages such as Wikipedia:Manual of Style (MOS) when inline typeface changes are needed.
This family of templates cannot be used in mainspace (the article namespace).
Also, this family of templates is not for use as wikitext markup for quotations on talk pages; use {{tq}} instead.
For cases where the serif typeface is not desirable (e.g. in blocks of computer code), use {{bxt}}, which substitutes boldfacing, or {{mxt}}, which substitutes a mono-spaced font. For style examples that break to their own line (e.g. paragraphs), use {{xt2}}.
For examples of bad/wrong style, in red, use {{!xt}}, {{!bxt}}, {{!mxt}}, or {{!xt2}}, respectively.
The {{xtd}} template exists for deprecated examples. Its alias {{xtg}} (for "grey") can be used to indicate uncertain, unavailable, disabled, lorem, etc., examples without implying deprecation. The bold, sans-serif equivalent is {{bxtd}} (and {{bxtg}} alias). The mono-spaced equivalent is {{mxtd}}.
The {{xtn}} template is for neutral examples, and has no color change, but is otherwise identical to {{xt}}. It can be used with {{xt}} and {{!xt}} to indicate usage that is neither advised nor advised against or deprecated. The bold, sans-serif equivalent is {{bxtn}}.
Parameters
دَییشدیر|text hereor|1=text here– The text to which to apply the markup. As with all templates, when the text has any equals characters ("="), explicitly prefix the text with|1=or the template will break.|title=tooltip text here– Takes text, which cannot be marked up in any way, and displays it as a pop-up "tooltip" (in most browsers) when the cursor hovers over the span
Accessibility
دَییشدیرThe accompanying change in typeface to a serif or mono-spaced type style (as in example text) is to make it fully accessible for those with color blindness.
Keep accessibility more broadly in mind, and never construct examples such that a blind person, who may not be able to see the coloration, boldfacing, or monospace font change, cannot understand the examples. Especially indicate, with terms like "not", "don't", "wrong:", etc., that a negative example is a negative one, or with "deprecated", "avoid", etc., that deprecated material is deprecated.
- What you write
...for example, {{xt|1=''T'' = 293.15 K}}, but not {{!xt|1=''m''=5.4kg}}.
- What you get
- ...for example, T = 293.15 K, but not m=5.4kg.

User CSS for a monospaced coding font

You can consistently use a monospaced font with well-designed characters for coding (e.g., to distinguish clearly between Add something like one of the code snippets below into your Special:MyPage/common.css page, replacing "Roboto Mono" with whatever your preferred coding font is (Roboto Mono was picked as a freely-available coding font for this example).
