"description": "Ensures the text argument does not exceed 250 characters, as described in the [[Editing Guidelines]] on this Wiki. Text longer than that limit is truncated, an error message is displayed in the article, and the article is flagged for review.\n\nThis Template is intended for use by other Templates rather than direct use in Wiki content. It should used as a \"guardrail\" to help inexperienced Wiki editors adhere to the Editing Guidelines. It should apply to any Template field that is intended to include direct quotes of game text to which the Editing Guidelines apply.\n\nEllipses in brackets such as \"{{...}}\" do not count towards the character limit and should be used to represent game text that has been elided to fit the length requirements. Line breaks, double- and triple-single quotes for <nowiki>''italics'' or '''bold'''</nowiki>, and HTML elements are also not counted for the character limit.\n\nOther placeholder text can be used without counting towards truncation by wrapping the text in an <nowiki><span data-truncate=\"ignore\">HTML element with the corresponding property</span></nowiki>. This should be used to indicate variant text or add formatting, not to paraphrase static text. Use templates for this when possible, e.g. using [[Template:Af]] to display the player's terms of address as {{IL|Addressed as:|Appearance=[formal address]}}."
