Template:Deleted text/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Deleted text. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
A way to add inserted deleted without using HTML.
Example:
- I like free culture and
censorship!
The default styling for most browsers is to have this text struck through.
Differentiating from strikethrough
Template:Strikethrough uses <s>...</s>, whereas Template:Deltext uses <del>...</del>.
Wikipedia serves HTML5. According to the HTML5.2 specification for the s element and the del element
- The
<s>element represents contents that are no longer accurate or no longer relevant. - The
<s>element is not appropriate when indicating document edits; to mark a span of text as having been removed from a document, use the<del>element. - The
<del>element represents a removal from the document.
The HTML5 specification from WHATWG is continuously updated, and may contain further relevant information on the s element and the del element.
