This template is a replacement for <small>...</small>.

Do not use this template to wrap multiple lines; doing so will cause errors.

Thus, Good practice:

Don't do this:

{{small|
*One
*Two
*Three}}

Do this instead:

{{smalldiv|
*One
*Two
*Three}}

This is the TemplateData for this template. It is used by the Visual Editor and other tools.

A template shortcut for the “small” HTML tag that makes the font smaller.
