Revision as of 09:29, 23 February 2018 by wikipedia>Primefac (Changed protection level for "Template:Dagger": high-risk template with 4000+ transclusions ([Edit=Require template editor access] (indefinite) [Move=Require template editor access] (indefinite)))

This template generates a dagger symbol with alternative text. The default alt text is "dagger". The text is not normally visible to readers, but may be displayed by web browsers when images are switched off, is read out loud by screen readers for those with visual impairment, and can be used by search engines to determine the content of the image.
Usage
{{dagger}}
produces File:Dagger-14-plain.png{{dagger|alt=footnote}}
produces File:Dagger-14-plain.png
(Either the symbol or the alternative text is displayed, according to the browser settings.)
