Deprecated or incorrect usage

Please note: This template is not intended to produce a formatting preference, such as indented paragraphs or double spacing after full stops (periods).

Indentation

Indentation can be produced with a div style using a CSS command like "text-indent:2em". {{gap}} shouldn't be used to indent the first line of a paragraph

Offsetting right-aligned text

Please do not use a construction like

{{right|This is incorrect{{gap}} }}

{{Right}} has a parameter "offset" for this:

{{right|This is correct|offset=2em}}
