When using the template to separate words in italics |
When using the template to separate words in italics (typically lists of artworks in [[Template:navbox|navboxes]]), put it ''within the italics'' to display with proper spacing on both sides. Compare: |
||
<nowiki>''[[Salt]]''{{·}} ''[[Pepper]]''</nowiki> |
<nowiki>''[[Salt]]''{{·}} ''[[Pepper]]''</nowiki> |
||
<nowiki>''[[Salt]]{{·}} [[Pepper]]''</nowiki> |
<nowiki>''[[Salt]]{{·}} [[Pepper]]''</nowiki> |

The space after the dot is a normal space. That means it wraps (allows line breaks) and it will collapse together with normal spaces that come after the template to form one single space. |
