: Because we copied them from Wikipedia is probably the most accurate short answer. :) The span has the class "dablink" in it. That allows global and per-theme global customizations to be done on it (see [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] for instance). *shrugs* -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 02:03, 6 June 2012 (UTC) | |||

Questions
Perhaps I am just... not finding it, but I can't figure out what the <span> portion of the template actually does... it seems to render things in Italics, but then Italics is turned off by using the double apostrophe... so I am confused what it is for.
Also, while I am thinking about it, the name of this template (and {{Otheruses5}} for that matter) seems odd and unintuitive to me. Why is there a 4 when there are only 3 paramaters? User:Thirty7/Sig 00:52, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
