{{Notice|As of [[Special:Diff/724648585|June 10, 2016]], a rule has been added to MediaWiki:Common.css, so now {{tag|small|o}} consistently renders at size that is 85% of the surrounding text. This template remains as a convenience wrapper.}}{{Commons Import}}
== 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 [[Wikipedia:MOS:ACCESS#Font size]] and [[Wikipedia: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. <!-- Per [[Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 159#Infobox font size]], common text within an infobox is 88% of page default. Therefore use of this template in an infobox yields 74.8% of page default (0.88 * 0.85). -->
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}}.
