This template is for trimming whitespace from strings. For the maintenance tag for images, see {{trimming}}
This template trims leading and trailing (but not interior) whitespace from a string. The string should be passed as the first unnamed parameter. The parameter must be named |1= if its value contains a = character.
You may substitute this template - that is, if used as {{subst:trim}}, the resulting wikicode is "clean".
