This template is shortcut for <small>...</small> and makes the font smaller. It takes one parameter: The text to shrink. The parameter may contain templates, images, etc., if a block needs to be wrapped in this template and contains such elements. Note that if the = character appears in the text, the parameter must be explicitly specified as |1=.

Thus {{small|1=3 + 2 = 5}} produces 3 + 2 = 5
  • {{big}} - same idea, but larger instead of smaller. A shortcut for <big>...</big>
  • {{huge}} - for diacritic marks only; similar to {{big}} but considerably larger, and compensates for vertical alignment.
  • {{resize}} - generic resizing
  • {{larger}} - not quite as large as {{big}}
  • {{large}} - simply large
