Caution:
This documentation is transcluded from Template:Caution/doc.
This template is used for notes that are more important than {{note}}, but less important than {{warning}}.
Usage
Method 1
The following displays the caution icon and the word 'Caution:'. You can follow this with whatever text/images/markup you like.
{{caution}}Don't do that!
Caution: Don't do that!
Method 2
The following includes the text passed to the template, and uses a table to stop the text flowing round the icon.
{{caution|This is a very long caution! It is sufficiently wordy to run
onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the
icon, but because we passed it as a parameter it keeps its left
alignment straight!}}
| Caution: | This is a very long caution! It is sufficiently wordy to run onto a second line, which would normally cause it to wrap round the icon, but because we passed it as a parameter it keeps its left alignment straight! |
Method 3
The following changes the word "Caution" to a different word.
{{caution|Don't do that!|Whoa}}
| Whoa: | Don't do that! |
To make it like Method 1 (i.e. to allow the text to run onto another line) simply only specify the second parameter and put the text outside the template:
{{caution|2=Whoa}}Don't do that!
Whoa: Don't do that!
