This is a documentation subpage for Template:Page break.

In most cases it contains usage information, example, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

To break up discontiguous runs of pages. For continuing text, use of <pages>, as per style is preferred.

• 1 word to be used
• 2, positioning of the line and label:

• Add top for the line to be above label
• Add left for the label to be in the left margin, and no break in the text (recommended for continuous text)
• Leave blank or write bottom for the line to be below the label

• label, prefixing word, default word is page, or label= to have no prefix. The prefix is omitted by default for a left-floated break. Note that label can also be used for non-standard alternate labelling of page separation.

Formatting options

• border-width, default is 1 px
• border-style, default is dashed
• border-color, default is #999999

Example 4 - Left label

For left-floated labels, you will need to introduce a margin. The class "indented-page" can do this.

However, do not use this class when transcluding pages from mainspace; a margin will be automatically applied by global javascript in this case.

{{page break|17|left}}
ain't got rhythm, you should get out of the kitchen.
</div>
