<br />
[[WP:THREAD|Threading of replies on talk pages]] is done using indentation and lists. This template is used for ''out''denting a reply on a talk page when indentation gets too deep.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
{{tlx|od|<var>integer</var>}} or {{tlx|od|<var>indentation wikitext</var>}}. Integer examples: {{tlx|od|5}}, {{tlx|od|-15}}, {{tlx|od|11|r{{=}}y}}. Indentation examples: {{tlx|od|:::::}}, {{tlx|od|*::::::}}, {{tlx|od|**:::#}}.<br />
<br />
== Parameters ==<br />
<br />
;{{para|1|<var>indent</var>}}<br />
: Supports two modes: literal indentation or an integer. In literal indentation mode the value may contain <code>:</code> (indents), <code>*</code> (unnumbered list), and <code>#</code> (numbered list). It is recommended to copy the colons, asterisks, and hashes from the start of the previous message. An integer value is interpreted as number or indents (<code>:</code>). Magnitude of a negative integer specifies the width of ''in''dentation (same as positive integer with {{para|reverse|y}}). Default value is <code>10</code>. Supported range is from −40 to 40.<br />
;{{para|2|y}}<br />
: Set it to add a link to [[Wikipedia:Indentation#Outdenting]]. {{tlx|od|5|y}} produces:<br />
{{od|5|y}}<br />
;{{para|r|y}} (aliases {{para|reverse|y}}, {{para|indent|y}}, {{para|in|y}})<br />
:Reverses the outdentation to become indentation and vice versa.<br />
<br />
==Examples==<br />
===With indentation wikitext===<br />
<div style="border:thin navy solid; padding:8px; margin:4px"><br />
<pre>::::Previous post, indented with four colons.<br />
{{Outdent|::::}} New post.</pre><br />
<br />
''displays as''<br />
<br />
::::Previous post, indented with four colons.<br />
{{Outdent|::::}} New post.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
=== Positive integer ===<br />
<div style="border:thin navy solid; padding:8px; margin:4px"><br />
<pre>::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
{{Outdent|6}} New post.</pre><br />
<br />
''displays as''<br />
<br />
::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
{{Outdent|6}} New post.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
=== With separate indent ===<br />
<br />
To not outdent all the way to the left margin, indent the {{tl|outdent}} template itself using colons:<br />
<div style="border:thin navy solid; padding:8px; margin:4px"><br />
<pre>::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
::{{Outdent|4}} New post.</pre><br />
<br />
''displays as''<br />
<br />
::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
::{{Outdent|4}} New post.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
=== Indent ===<br />
<div style="border:thin navy solid; padding:8px; margin:4px"><br />
Using {{para|reverse|y}}:<br />
<pre>::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
::{{Outdent|4}} Start of a new post indented 2 levels using a bar of length 6−2=4.<br />
::{{Outdent|5|reverse=yes}}<br />
:::::::Indent to indentation level 7 using a reversed bar of length 7−2=5.</pre><br />
<br />
''displays as''<br />
<br />
::::::Previous post, indented 6 levels.<br />
::{{Outdent|4}} Start of a new post indented 2 levels using a bar of length 6−2=4.<br />
::{{Outdent|5|reverse=yes}}<br />
:::::::Indent to indentation level 7 using a reversed bar of length 7−2=5.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
Or with a negative integer:<br />
<div style="border:thin navy solid; padding:8px; margin:4px"><br />
<pre><br />
::::::Original conversation.<br />
::::::{{od|-3}}<br />
:::::::::Afterthought.<br />
:::::::{{od|2}}<br />
:::::::Continuation of original conversation.</pre><br />
<br />
''displays as''<br />
<br />
::::::Original conversation.<br />
::::::{{od|-3}}<br />
:::::::::Afterthought.<br />
:::::::{{od|2}}<br />
:::::::Continuation of original conversation.<br />
</div><br />
<br />
