{{Strikethrough}} draws a line through the text that is its parameter. This is done by embedding the parameter in an HTML <s>...</s> element, producing output such as: 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 <del>...</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.
