Templates
Use of the equals sign
Within the body of a template, such as the {{Solution | ... }} template, the wiki will interpret an = sign as indicating a named parameter, which will lead to the template not being displayed correctly. Therefore, either avoid the use of the = sign, or surround it in nowiki tags, like this:
{{Solution | 1 + 1 <nowiki> = </nowiki> 2 }}
Alternatively, if you wish to use an = in an equation, you can drop into math mode as in:
{{Solution | <math>1 + 1 = 2</math>}}
or
{{Solution | \$1 + 1 = 2\$}}.
