Template:Nostrike
Please do not use <strike>; this old element has been deprecated in the HTML specifications for over a decade, and its use here triggers the "lint" filters many of us WP:GNOMEs are using to clean up Wikipedia in preparation for migrating fully to HTML5. The correct elements to use are <s> for typographic strike-though (what you probably want most of the time, e.g. for indicating a redacted comment), while <del> is semantic markup that indicates deletion/rejection and is used with <ins> (inserted/replacement content) in marking up revision of material such as a draft proposal. ~~~~
Template documentation | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Nostrike}}). |
This is a user-talk template for requesting that editors stop using deprecated (1990s HTML 4.01 or earlier) markup. It takes no parameters, creates no section heading, and auto-signs the post. It should be substituted: {{subst:Nostrike}}.
