Note, if your text includes an equals sign, you need to explicitly number the 1st parameter.  If you explicitly number the 1st parameter, you must also explicitly number the 2nd parameter if you use it:
<pre style="max-width:400px; margin-left:12px;"><nowiki>
<pre style="max-width:550px; margin-left:12px;"><nowiki>
{{Block indent|1=This has an equals sign (=) in it.}}
{{Block indent|1=This has an equals sign (=) in it.|2=6}}
</nowiki></pre>
</nowiki></pre>
If you explicitly number the 1st parameter, you must also explicitly number the 2nd parameter if you use it:
 
<pre style="max-width:450px; margin-left:12px;"><nowiki>
Results in:
{{Block indent|1=This has an equals sign (=) in it.|2=6}}
{{Block indent|1=This has an equals sign (=) in it.|2=6}}
</nowiki></pre>
 
Otherwise it would (when written like this: <code><nowiki>{{Block indent|This has an equals sign (=) in it.|6}}</nowiki><code>), result in:
{{Block indent|This has an equals sign (=) in it.|6}}

This provide a block indent, similar to the Wikipedia template (Block indent). The first parameter is the content that should be indented and the second parameter is the number of indents similar to the amount of preceding colons. If no second parameter is present, it defaults to 1 indent.


Usage:

{{Block indent|Test string #1a}}
: Test string #1b
{{Block indent|Test string #2a|2}}
:: Test string #2b
{{Block indent|Test string #3a|5}}
::::: Test string #3b

Results in:

Test string #1a
Test string #1b
Test string #2a
Test string #2b
Test string #3a
Test string #3b


Note, if your text includes an equals sign, you need to explicitly number the 1st parameter. If you explicitly number the 1st parameter, you must also explicitly number the 2nd parameter if you use it:

{{Block indent|1=This has an equals sign (=) in it.|2=6}}

Results in:

This has an equals sign (=) in it.

Otherwise it would (when written like this: {{Block indent|This has an equals sign (=) in it.|6}}), result in:
