Line 7: {{Wiki markup}} The [[MediaWiki]] software, which drives Wikipedia, allows the use of a subset of [[~~HTML 5~~HTML5]] [[HTML element\|elements]], or tags and their [[HTML attribute\|attributes]], for presentation formatting.{{r\|sanitizer}} However, most HTML functionality can be replicated using equivalent [[Help:Wiki markup\|wiki markup]] or [[Help:Templates\|templates]]. These alternatives are generally preferred within articles because they are often simpler for most editors to use and less intrusive in the editing interface. [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Keep_markup_simple\|Wikipedia's Manual of Style]] recommends when and where these alternatives should be used. (See [[Help:Wikitext]] for wikitext equivalents to HTML tags not otherwise discussed below.) HTML can also be useful outside articles, such as for formatting within templates. For assistance with using Cascading Style Sheets on Wikipedia, see [[Help:Cascading Style Sheets]].
