Template:Italic title italicizes page titles. Article titles cannot contain wiki formatting, such as '' , so article titles cannot be italicized in the normal way. This template has the following effects:
Use {{Italic title}} to italicize the part of the title before the first parenthesis. Use {{Italic disambiguation}} to italicize the part of the title in the parenthesis. Use the {{DISPLAYTITLE:}} magic word or {{Italic title|string=}} template for titles with a mix of italic and roman text, as at List of Sex and the City episodes and The Hustler.
Italics may also be used where <dfn> tags or {} templates mark a term's first use, definition, introduction, or distinguished meaning on the page. As <dfn> tags and {{ dfn }} templates do not apply text formatting, the italicization (or quoting) must be added if intended.
Language links are at the top of the page across from the title.
Use of italics should conform to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Text formatting § Italic type. Do not use articles (a, an, or the) as the first word (Economy of the Second Empire, not The economy of the Second Empire), unless it is an inseparable part of a name (The Hague) or of the title of a work (A Clockwork Orange, The Simpsons).
