Fyrimynd:-
Use {{-}} after any floating elements and before elements you do not wish to float together with the first set. This uses a line break, which may introduce an ugly extra blank line. If you want to avoid that, use {{Clear}} instead. Do not use this template to deliberately add whitespace and blank lines between non-floating elements.
Details
{{-}} contains the markup:
<br style="clear:both;" />
(the correct syntax for the old HTML markup <br clear=both>
). This causes any previously established float to clear.
Optionally, you can clear only left- or right floating elements by using {{-|left}}
or {{-|right}}
.
The unusual name of this template is a mnemonic for an imaginary horizontal line, which separates floating elements above from those below. Some editors prefer the mnemonic {{Clr}} ("clear"), which simply redirects here. However, do not confuse {{Clr}} with {{Clear}}, which is a different template that uses <div></div>
instead of <br />
and so does not introduce an extra line break.
Examples

In these examples, the {{sidebar}} template is used to create a simple right floating table. For better examples check out the links. Please add missing {{-}} where necessary. This sidebar is only a quick example. |

First
In the first example {{-}}
on a new line after the word browser guarantees that the table does not float into the second example. (Placing it directly after the word browser doesn't work in Google Chrome.)
- Cute, but less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.

Second
In the second example the position of {{-}}
is after the word but. Note that it does not affect the
left margin of the bullet * list, because it is used inside of it.
- Cute, but
less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.

less funny if it overlaps the next table or section, causing horizontal scrolling or worse depending on the browser.
