Usage தொகு

This template simplifies formatting text in Small caps, where lowercase letters are replaced with smaller capital letters. {{Sc}} may be used for shorthand; the broad usage of this template has made an abbreviated version convenient.

Small caps

Misuse for capitalisation தொகு

The use of this template to simulate smaller capitalised text is semantically incorrect:

* {{small-caps|this is incorrect. grammatically, there should be capitals in this sentence.}}
* {{x-smaller|THIS IS CORRECT. IT IS CAPITALS, BUT IN A SMALLER FONT}}
* {{all small caps|This is also correct. It is the "small-caps" variant but the text is not all lowercase when copied.}}
  • this is incorrect. grammatically, there should be capitals in this sentence.
  • THIS IS CORRECT. IT IS CAPITALS, BUT IN A SMALLER FONT
  • This is also correct. It is the "small-caps" variant but the text is not all lowercase when copied.

While it may look similar, the first one has problems:

  • It copy-pastes as lowercase text, because the CSS only affects styling, not the content.
  • Viewers that do not handle the CSS used for small-caps (font-variant) will display the text as all lowercase.

The template {{All small caps}} can be used to request the special small-caps glyphs (generally slightly proportionally wider than simply making the font smaller) for all letters, uppercase or lowercase, without having the text copy-paste as lowercase.
