Questions
Perhaps I am just... not finding it, but I can't figure out what the <span> portion of the template actually does... it seems to render things in Italics, but then Italics is turned off by using the double apostrophe... so I am confused what it is for.
Also, while I am thinking about it, the name of this template (and {{Otheruses5}} for that matter) seems odd and unintuitive to me. Why is there a 4 when there are only 3 paramaters? — Talk · Cont 00:52, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
