Usage

Use this template to format style examples (for example, on the Manual of Style and its subpages), especially when using quotation marks or italics could be confusing. (Use 1= before the parameter if it contains equals signs.)

Examples
What you write
Symbols for variables are normally italicized, and symbols for units of measurement are usually upright: for example, {{xt|1=''T'' = 293.15 K}}, {{xt|1=''m'' = 5.4 kg}}.
For nested quotations, use double quotes for the outermost level, single quotes for the next inner level, and continue alternating: for example, {{xt|The Dalai Lama wrote: "As Richard Feynman said, 'I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.'"}}
What you get
Symbols for variables are normally italicized, and symbols for units of measurement are usually upright: for example, T = 293.15 K, m = 5.4 kg.
For nested quotations, use double quotes for the outermost level, single quotes for the next inner level, and continue alternating: for example, The Dalai Lama wrote: "As Richard Feynman said, 'I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.'"
