Show/hide

.
Size warning
Remember "Avoid using smaller font sizes in elements that already use a smaller font size, such as infoboxes, navboxes and reference sections.", per MOS:ACCESS#Font size and MOS:SMALLFONT. Use of the {{Small}}
template within a chart that uses this template produces a font size 75% of the page default, well below the 85% minimum specified in the linked guidelines.
Per Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 159#Infobox font size, common text within an infobox is 88% of page default. Therefore use of this template in an infobox yields 74.8% of page default (0.88 * 0.85).
