The Poem extension allows easy formatting of poems and similar material within Wikitext .
Once the extension is enabled, you can put any block of text within <poem></poem>
tags, which has the following effects:
- All newlines are preserved by converting them into
<br />
tags
- The block of text is enclosed in
<p>...</p>
tags (as well as a div of class "poem")
- Colons at the beginning of a line are converted into 1 em indentation
- Spaces at the beginning of a line are preserved and no longer invoke the
<pre>
tag
The extension preserves wikilinks, bolding, etc. if they are present in the poem.
Usage
Example
Input text | Output |
---|---|
<poem>
In [[Wikipedia:Xanadu|Xanadu]] did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.
</poem>
|
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan |
Example with indentation
Input text | Output |
---|---|
<poem>
Une terre au flanc maigre, âpre, avare, inclément
Où les vivants pensifs travaillent tristement,
::Et qui donne à regret à cette race humaine
Un peu de pain pour tant de labeur et de peine ;
::Des hommes durs, éclos sur ces sillons ingrats ;
Des cités d’où s’en vont, en se tordant les bras,
::La charité, la paix, la foi, sœurs vénérables ;
L’orgueil chez les puissants et chez les misérables ;
</poem>
|
Une terre au flanc maigre, âpre, avare, inclément |
Style
The poem text is wrapped in a div, which has no style by default; but inherits any style or class option passed to the poem.
For example, while indented text can be used for simple examples to prevent filling and draw a nice blue box, it can be hard to read in some cases, since long lines aren't broken. A similar, but somewhat better effect can be obtained with:
<poem style="border: 2px solid #d6d2c5; background-color: #f9f4e6; padding: 1em;">
When applied to the above example, the result is as follows:
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.
"compact" option
Applying the <poem>
tag with the compact option to a text of more than two lines, every line becomes a separate paragraph.
(That is to say, it allows for more compact markup, not for a more compact output.)
Subsequent use of the <poem>
tag with the compact option, with up to two newlines in between, gives just a single newline between texts, not a new paragraph.
Thus, applied to texts of more than two lines each, every line becomes a separate paragraph, except that the last line of each text and the first line of the next text are combined into one paragraph.

Problems and solutions
- Variables and ParserFunctions do work inside the
<poem>...</poem>
container, but NOT within the<poem ... >
tag itself; this prevents templates with code such as<poem style="{{{1}}}">
. - One workaround is to use
<div style="{{{1}}}"><poem> ... </poem></div>
instead. - Another way is to use the
#tag
magic word: {{#tag:poem| ... |style="{{{1}}}"}}.- NB: this would however seem not to work with the "compact" option.
