Description

This template makes content wait until existing content is completed in all columns. It is often used to prevent text from flowing next to unrelated images.

Usage

  • {{clear}} — adds <div style="clear:both;"></div>
  • {{clear|left}} — adds <div style="clear:left;"></div>
  • {{clear|right}} — adds <div style="clear:right;"></div>

For technical details, see the discussion in the talk page.

Examples

Example without {{clear}}

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

New section without the template before

Without the code {{clear}}, this section starts at the right of the image.
