== Usage ==
This template is a replacement for {{tag|small}}.

Remember "Avoid using smaller font sizes in elements that already use a smaller font size, such as infoboxes, navboxes and reference sections.", per [[MOS:ACCESS#Font size]] and [[MOS:SMALLFONT]]. Use of this template within an infobox produces a font size 75% of the page default, well below the 85% minimum specified in the linked guidelines. 

The only parameter is the content and may contain templates, images, etc. if a block needs to be wrapped in this template and contains such elements. Note that if the <code>=</code> character appears in the content, the parameter must be explicitly specified as {{para|1}}.

Do not use this template to wrap multiple lines; doing so will cause [[Special:LintErrors|Linter]] errors. If you need to wrap multiple list items or multiple paragraphs, use {{tl|smalldiv}} around the entire block, or wrap each list item or paragraph separately.
