Use this template to insert a fixed width gap in inline text. The default is 2em.

For example,

Hello{{gap|3em}}world!

yields "Helloworld!"


If no argument is given, the default is 2em:

Hello{{gap}}world!

yields "Helloworld!"

Please note: This template is not intended to produce indented paragraphs, double spacing after full stops (periods), or offsets from the right.

Indentation

ਸੋਧੋ

The house style of Wikisource is to separate paragraphs with a double line break, rather than to indent them, except in cases such as poetry where the formatting might be considered part of the text.

Offsetting right-aligned text

ਸੋਧੋ

Please do not use

{{right|This is incorrect{{gap}} }}

{{Right}} has a parameter offset for this:

{{right|This is correct|offset=2em}}

The reason for this is that if the line wraps, the {{gap}} will go to the next line, where it will be invisible, and the text will end up right up against the right margin:

The {{gap}} here is in a blue box:

Compare to setting an offset of 4em:

The text retains its offset even when it wraps.

  • {{right}}
  • {{indent}} for a simple indented paragraph
  • {{wide space}} for a wider gap between adjacent words (this will also copy-paste as a space; {{gap}} will not.
  • {{hanging indent inherit}} for paragraphs spanning Page: namespace pages
  • To insert a vertical gap (i.e. extra line spacing), simply add multiple blank lines. To force a gap in situations where the Mediawiki software consumes multiple carriage returns, such as at the end of a page, use {{nop}}. See also {{dhr}}.
  • {{0}}
  • {{ditto}}
  • {{phantom}}
