{{Template shortcuts|Strike|S}}

{{tl|Strikethrough}} draws a line through the text that is its parameter. This is done by embedding the parameter in an HTML {{tag|s}} element, producing output such as: {{strikethrough|this, i.e. text with a line drawn through its middle.}} Outside articles, it can be used to mark something as no longer accurate or relevant without removing it from view. Do not use it, however, to indicate [[document]] edits; to mark a span of text as having been removed from a document, use {{tag|del}}, <del>which is aesthetically similar</del>. This template should be used within one block (paragraph); it should not wrap around multiple paragraphs or even multiple bullet points, and it does not appear(?) to be able to wrap [external links] either. See the example below for wrapping multiple bullets. 

==Example==
{{Markup
 |width=auto |col1={{align|left|Markup}} |col2={{align|left|Output}}
 | <nowiki>{{strikethrough|HyperText Markup Language}}</nowiki>
 | {{strikethrough|HyperText Markup Language}}
}}

===How to wrap a block of text===

To wrap text that contains line breaks, use {{tl|Strikethroughdiv}} instead. 

{{Markup
 |width=auto |col1={{align|left|Markup}} |col2={{align|left|Output}}
 | <nowiki>{{strikethroughdiv|
* This
* That
* And another thing}}</nowiki>
 | {{strikethroughdiv|
* This
* That
* And another thing}}
}}
