<br>The indenter '''Template:in5''' indents text by 5 spaces or |
|||
the count specified by<br>parameter 1 (range: 1 to 50 spaces). |

:: Usage: {<font/>{in5|47}} <--indents by 47 |
|||
Spaces outside the double braces will add an extra space on either |
|||
side,<br>such as the 12 spaces inserted by: " {<font/>{in5|10}} ". |
|||
NOTE: The name "in5" was chosen because other names were debated, such as<br> the name "in" being redefined as 6 different uses. |
|||
==Examples== |
|||
The following are examples showing larger amounts of spacing: |
|||
:: Example 1: <nowiki>xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|10}}</nowiki>zz, produces: xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|10}}zz |
|||
:: Example 2: <nowiki>xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|15}}</nowiki>zz, produces: xx{{in5|10}}yy{{in5|15}}zz |
|||
:: Example 3: <nowiki>aa{{in5|20}}bb{{in5|20}}</nowiki>cc, produces: aa{{in5|20}}bb{{in5|20}}cc |
|||
:: Example 4: <nowiki>"32.0{{in5|7}}"</nowiki> produces: "32.0{{in5|7}}" |
|||
The example 4 shows the ability to put trailing spaces, such as spaces after a number in a wikitable column (coded as: | 32.0{<font/>{in5}} ). Typical numbers (with "align=right"), in a table column, often appear crowded at the right-hand side, so appending "{<font/>{in5}}" can improve readability, in tables with lines between columns. |
|||
==Universal template== |
|||
This Template:in5 is intended as a universal template, with the same name on all Wikipedia sites. The name "in5" with the digit "5" is unlikely to conflict with other-language Wikipedias. Care must be taken not to name a universal template with a name that would be an awkward or peculiar word in the other languages. However, in some cases, a universal template might need a different name in a few conflicting languages. |
|||
==Comparison with Template:spaces== |
|||
There are other templates that insert spaces, although none had allowed 50 spaces. For example, the [[Template:spaces]] has had a limit of about 15 spaces (during 2009-2010): |
|||
{| class=wikitable style="margin-left:40px" |
|||
| valign=top | Example of <nowiki>{{spaces|10}}</nowiki><br>and...<br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|14}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|15}}</nowiki><br>with <nowiki>{{spaces|25}}</nowiki> || <nowiki>xx{{spaces|10}}</nowiki>yy, produces:<br>xx{{spaces|10}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|14}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|15}}yy<br>xx{{spaces|25}}yy |

|||
|} |
|||
Again, using {<font/>{in5}} reliably allows up to 50 spaces at a time. |
|||
==Performance== |
|||
Template {in5} generates a mix of &nbsp; and spaces to avoid the space compression done by the [[MediaWiki]] parser. Each   is stored inside the formatted page (such as seen by the browser option: <View><Source>). The output is optimized to be the shortest possible markup language for spaces, in a variety of different browsers. |
|||
Typically, {in5} runs much faster than [[Template:spaces]], generating 1/3 the markup per use (as 72% less text, over 50 fewer characters each time). Also, {in5} allows 50 spaces, whereas {spaces} has been limited to 15 spaces during 2009-2010. |
