Template:End
 | This template is used on approximately 123,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This template ends any table (with bar-brace "|}") and may be used with any other templates that begin a one-level table and require no further closing markup.
Note: Using the standard table end wikitext |} will work correctly, but may be seen as an error by some maintenance utilities.
This template duplicates {{s-end}} for technical reasons. See the documentation on that page. Any succession template ending with {{end}} should be changed to {{s-end}}.
Position
WARNING: Template {{end}} must be placed on a separate line for ending a table; otherwise, it inserts a literal bar-brace "|}" into the text.
Redirects
Other "table end" templates redirect to this one. Where possible, use the end template that matches the start template. For example, tables opened with {{Election box}} and similar templates should be closed with the redirect {{Election box end}} so that the wikitext is easy for editors to understand.
If no specific end template exists, then a hidden comment can be added, such as {{End}} <!-- Election box -->, to indicate which table-opening template it matches.
Example
{{election table|title=Summary of the May 2, 2011 election}}
