Usage

This template is intended for use in infoboxes; specifically {{Infobox person}} and templates calling Infobox person.

{{Marriage}} takes up to three unnamed parameters (name, start date, end date)—plus an optional named parameter |end= (|reason=)—to produce output such as the following:

Template:Markup

Use of the first two parameters with |end= (|reason=) will cause a line break between the name and the start date.

In an infobox

Spouses
John Smith
(m. 1895⁠–⁠Expression error: Unexpected < operator.)
John Doe
(m. 1885; died Expression error: Unexpected < operator.)
Jane Doe
(m. 2002)
John Q. Public
(m. 2002⁠–⁠2010)
John Q. Citizen
(m. 2002; div. 2010)
(m. 2012)
John Q. Taxpayer
(m. 2002, divorced)
Joe Blow
(div. 2010)
Joe Bloggs
(before 2010)
Joe Sixpack
(until 2010)
Joe Schmo
(divorced)
Juan Perez
(after 2010)

Infoboxes already reduce text size to 88%, and MOS:FONTSIZE sets a lower limit for text size at 85% of the normal page font size, so it is not appropriate to use font size reduction when this template is used in an infobox. The example here is produced by:

{{Infobox person |spouse = {{Plainlist|
* {{marriage |John Smith |1 January 1895 |December 31, 1905}}
* {{marriage |John Doe |1885 |July 27, 1888 |end=d.}}
* {{marriage |Jane Doe |2002}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Public |2002|2010}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Citizen |2002|2010|end=div}}
* {{marriage |<!--John Q. Citizen-->|2012}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Taxpayer |2002|end=div}}
* {{marriage |Joe Blow|<!--unknown-->|2010|end=div}}
* {{marriage |Joe Bloggs|<!--unknown-->|2010}}
* {{marriage |Joe Sixpack|<!--unknown-->|2010|end=<!--uncertain-->}}
* {{marriage |Joe Schmo |end=div}}
* {{marriage |Juan Perez |2010|reason=<!--earliest-->}} }}
}}
