This template is used on 130,000+ pages.
To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to it should first be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Usage

Since <big>...</big> is obsolete, this template may be used as a replacement for presentation markup.

It takes one parameter: The text to enlarge.

{{big|text to make larger}}

If the value passed to the template contains an "=" (equals sign) character it must be done like so:

{{big|1=text to make larger}}

or the offending "=" character(s) must be replaced with =.

This template is compatible with the {{IPA}}, and similar templates:

{{big|{{IPA|ὡ}}}}

Example of typical usage:

Blah blah blah {{big|æ}} versus {{big|œ}} blah blah.

This looks like:

Blah blah blah æ versus œ blah blah.
