Documentation
{{clear}}: Makes content wait until existing content is completed in all columns. Often used to stop text from flowing next to unrelated images.
Usage
{{subst:Clear}}
The template may also be transcluded, but as the markup provided is unlikely to change or improve, there is little justification for transclusion overhead.
Example without the {{clear}} template
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
