Bản mẫu:Smallcaps all/doc

This template permanently changes the content in it, first by converting it to lower case, then displaying it in small caps, about the same height as regular lower-case letters. The lower-case conversion happens regardless of user preferences, and the content will copy-paste as lowercase regardless of its displayed appearance. For this reason, it is usually not suitable for article text, and is intended for specialized purposes.
It is primarily for use in other templates, to correct mixed- or uppercase input that should actually be lowercase despite the visual display.
Other templates have been developed to handle content that should actually be upper- or mixed-case, as detailed in #Deprecated uses, below.
This template should not be used for emphasis in articles; see MOS:CAPS and MOS:SMALLCAPS.

**Usage**
 Code     : 
 Displayed: Hello World
 Pasted   : Correctly as "Hello World" in a few browsers, but incorrectly as "hello world" in many.
To maintain initial full capitals, a second parameter is used. Example:
 Code: ello orld
 Displayed: ello orld
 Pasted   : Correctly as "Hello World".
This style is not usually used in Wikipedia. For cases where it is needed, use Smallcaps (and Smallcaps2 for smaller output), which produce this result without need of additional parameters, and for entire spans of text.
If the template is placed outside a link, it will capitalize the link itself, so in some cases it needs to be placed inside the link.
This template will corrupt HTML character entities, such as &nbsp;; if a special character much be used in its content, it must be encoded as a decimal character references (e.g. &#160;).
If either parameter's content contains an equals sign (=) the parameters needs to be numbered, 1 and (if two are used) 2, or the template will break. This is a general limitation of MediaWiki syntax.

**Legitimate uses**
This template should only be used for text that is normally all-lowercase regardless of typographic style, but which is desired to be shown in smallcaps for display purposes. An example is indication of stressed syllables in the Respell template.
It is also capable of mixed-case display with additional parameters, but rarely needed for this purpose since Smallcaps and Smallcaps2 do this more robustly.

**Deprecated uses**
The default parameter of this template should never be used for strings, such as acronyms, that should be capitalized regardless of typographic style. As noted above, it can be used, but only with additional parameters, to represent mix-case text; this is better done with Smallcaps2 (e.g., TCMoS), or Smallcaps (e.g., Hello World), both of which work on entire spans of mixed-case text, and neither of which require additional parameters.
Several of the following attempts to lighten ALL-CAPS words, abbreviations, or acronyms, as a matter of typographic style, will corrupt the data; many violate the Manual of Style if used in articles; and those that do not are better done with other templates:
To l)- To quasi-mix the case of acronyms, as in nesco (instead of UNESCO) – inline hatnote|This is not done in Wikipedia articles; see MOS:CAPS, MOS:ACRONYMS.- To make acronyms and initialisms, and other all-caps strings like Unicode character names, smaller, as in UNESCO and IDEOGRAPHIC COMMA – - A trademark like Time (magazine)|ime (instead of TIME) – inline hatnote|Do not use this in articles, per MOS:TM.- To present smallcaps titles of works, in citation styles that use this format – - Era abbreviations in dates such as 625 BCE – - The special case of transliterating tetragrammaton|HWH as "the ORD", as in the King James Bible – 

**Technical notes**
 This template's main parameter is a wrapper for  – This method cannot be relied upon because it does not work at least in Internet Explorer 5 and 6, which are still fairly common browsers, and it is implemented inconsistently in others, such that it copy-pastes as the original text in Firefox, but as the altered text in Chrome, Safari, Opera, and text-only browsers.- This template should not be directly substituted because the result will not be just the intended text, but the original text wrapped in HTML and wikitemplate code. It is better to use other templates like smallcaps, smallcaps2, or a combination of them, to achieve the desired result, and to correct the actual case of the content while doing so.- Diacritics (å, ç, é, ğ, ı, ñ, ø, ş, ü, etc.) are handled. However, because the job is performed by each reader's browser, inconsistencies in CSS implementations can lead to some browsers not converting certain rare diacritics.- Use of this template does not generate any automatic categorization. As with most templates, if the argument contains an = sign, the sign should be replaced with =, or the whole argument be prefixed with 1=. And for wikilinks, you need to use piping. There is a parsing problem with MediaWiki which causes unexpected behavior when a template with one style is used within a template with another style.- There is a problem with dotted and dotless I. . This is incorrect metadata. If the article that you are editing uses a citation style that includes small caps, either format the citation manually (see examples below) or use a citation template that specifically includes small caps in its formatting, like Cite LSA.- This template will not affect the use of HTML character entities like &nbsp;.
