Template:Intro

The Intro Template formats text inside a standard introductory pale blue header, just like this one.

Purpose

For use at the top of many pages to highlight an introductory paragraph that summarizes the following contents. Generally the intro should not exceed five or six lines, and would not be needed unless the main text was several paragraphs long. Use the Note template if what you are highlighting is not at the top of the page.

Usage of Intro Template

Note that if the pipe symbol is missing, only a dummy parameter will be displayed instead of your intended text.

If the text must contain the equals sign "=", then the text after the pipe must be enclosed inside     tags:

Similarly, if other essential symbols in the text cause the text to display incorrectly, try enclosing the text inside     tags.

Ignore the following, it's only a representation of formatting and a parameter dummy.
