ਫਰਮਾ:Spd/doc

This is the other spaced en dash template; it renders like this (without the quotation marks): " – ". It is intended to be substituted and uses a Unicode en-dash character rather than the ASCII equivalent –, and renders the following:  –  i.e. a non-breaking space, an en dash and a normal space that will line-break and collapse.

This template has been designed as an alternative to {{Spaced ndash}}, which performs the same function but when substituted is less easily read and edited in the wikicode editing window. {{Spd}} is thus preferable to the older, ASCII-based template mentioned when substituted, in a similar way to {{mdash}}.

Example

• I walked past a red car{{subst:Spd}}that was parked next to a blue car{{subst:Spd}}when I fell over.

will render as:

• • I walked past a red car – that was parked next to a blue car – when I fell over.

This will appear in the editing window as:

• I walked past a red car – that was parked next to a blue car – when I fell over.
