This template provides way to wrap wiki markup in (single) square brackets. More importantly, it helps to keep the markup free of line noise and thus easier to edit.

Usage

  • {{bracket|[[Wikipedia:Example]]}}[Wikipedia:Example]
  • {{bracket}}[

Function

This template is a simple wrapper around the [ and ] HTML entities that produce starting and ending brackets, respectively.

The template cannot output just an ending bracket. You will have to use ] to produce the "]" ending bracket.

This template is not necessary in Citation Style 1 templates. You can simply use square brackets, and they will be treated as ordinary text (and not wiki markup) when it constructs links.
