Usage

The template {{glossary}} (a.k.a. {{glossary start}} or {{glossary begin}}) is used with {{glossary end}} to explicitly bracket a glossary or glossary-like description list (also called a definition list or association list), especially in a template-structured glossary, although such lists can be used more generally. This is required (as a technical matter) for template-structured glossaries, and is good practice anywhere description/definition lists are used for glossaries. The template pair invoke the <dl></dl> description list HTML element. Unfortunately, the "{{dl}}" mnemonic is not available as a redirect as of this writing.

The pair of templates incidentally prevent Wikipedia's MediaWiki software engine from auto-creating redundant definition list code (<dl></dl>) around terms and definitions if they have blank lines between them, as they often do, especially in non-structured glossaries.

Typical usage:

Parameters

• |id=   can be used to assign a one-word ID name to the glossary. This can be used as a #id link target, and could have other metadata uses.
• |style=   will pass CSS styling on to the <dl></dl> element. I.e., this styles the definition list itself, as a container, not the individual terms and definitions with it. There is rarely any reason to do this.
• |class=   will pass one or more space-separate CSS classes on to <dl></dl> element, in addition to the automatically included class glossary. There is rarely any reason to do this.

Examples

This shows both a very simple then a rather complex instance in a structured glossary (including an entry with a block quotation, using the glossary block quotation template, {{gbq}}):

==A–M== Предлошка:Bxt {{term|1=applesnorkel}} {{defn|1=Definition of term 1.}} {{term|term=arglefarst |content=''{{lang|xx|arglefarst}}''{{anchor|argle-farst|argle farst}} }} {{defn|no=1 |defn= Beginning of first definition of term 2 {{gbq|1=Block quotation in first definition of term 2.}} Conclusion of first definition of term 2. }} {{defn|no=2 |defn=Second definition of term 2.}} Предлошка:Bxt

A–M {{glossary}} – Half of a template pair; uses <dl></dl> with a class to open the structured glossary definition list that {{glossend}} closes. {{glossary end}} – The other half of this template pair; uses </dl><//dl> to close the definition list that {{gloss}} opens. {{term}} – The glossary term to which the {{defn}} definition applies; a customized <dt></dt> with a class and an embedded <dfn></dfn>. {{defn}} – The definition that applies to the {{term}}; uses <dd></dd> with a class {{ghat}} – a hatnote template properly formatted for the top of a {{defn}} definition {{gbq}} or {{gquote}} – a block quotation template properly formatted for inclusion in a {{defn}} definition {{glossary link}} – meta-template for creating shortcut templates for linking to definitions in specific glossaries Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Glossaries applesnorkel Definition of term 1. arglefarst 1.  Beginning of first definition of term 2 „Block quotation in first definition of term 2.” Conclusion of first definition of term 2. 2.  Second definition of term 2.

Scope

This family of templates, like the underlying definition list code, is primarily intended for definitional uses, but can have other applications. The HTML 4.01 Specification itself says:

Definition lists...generally consist of a series of term/definition pairs (although definition lists may have other applications). Thus, when advertising a product, one might use a definition list:

• {{glossary}} – Half of a template pair; uses <dl></dl> with a class to open the structured glossary definition list that {{glossend}} closes.
• {{glossary end}} – The other half of this template pair; uses </dl><//dl> to close the definition list that {{gloss}} opens.
• {{term}} – The glossary term to which the {{defn}} definition applies; a customized <dt></dt> with a class and an embedded <dfn></dfn>.
• {{defn}} – The definition that applies to the {{term}}; uses <dd></dd> with a class
• {{ghat}} – a hatnote template properly formatted for the top of a {{defn}} definition
• {{gbq}} or {{gquote}} – a block quotation template properly formatted for inclusion in a {{defn}} definition
• {{glossary link}} – meta-template for creating shortcut templates for linking to definitions in specific glossaries
