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
}}

Additionally, if you wish to use an = in an equation, you can drop into math mode using <math>1 + 1 = 2</math> or \$1 + 1 = 2\$.
