Infoboxes already reduce text size to 88%, and [[MOS:FONTSIZE]] sets a lower limit for text size at 85% of the normal page font size, so it is not appropriate to use font size reduction when this template is used in an infobox. The example here is produced by:
<syntaxhighlight style="font-size:small;" lang="wikitext">
{{Infobox person |spouse = {{Plainlist|
* {{marriage |John Smith |1 January 1895 |December 31, 1905}}
* {{marriage |John Doe |1885 |July 27, 1888 |end=d.}}
* {{marriage |[[Jane Doe]] (ABX) |2002}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Public |2002|2010}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Citizen |2002|2010|end=div}}
* {{marriage |<!--John Q. Citizen-->|2012}}
* {{marriage |John Q. Taxpayer |2002|end=div}}
* {{marriage |Joe Blow|<!--unknown-->|2010|end=div}}
* {{marriage |Joe Bloggs|<!--unknown-->|2010}}
* {{marriage |Joe Sixpack|<!--unknown-->|2010|end=<!--uncertain-->}}
* {{marriage |Joe Schmo |end=div}}
* {{marriage |Juan Perez |2010|reason=<!--earliest-->}} }}
}}
</syntaxhighlight>
* None of the parameters are required on their own, but if a template is missing all three of start date, end date, and reason, an error message will be displayed.
* Use of the first two parameters with {{para|end}} ({{para|reason}}) will cause a line break between the name and the start date.
* Use of {{dc|his death}} or {{dc|her death}} for this purpose has been deprecated ([[Template talk:Marriage/Archive 5#Use "(m. 1900)" and do not fill in an end date|see discussion]]).
* If the marriage ended with the death of the article's subject, {{insource|"Omission per Template:Marriage instructions"|do {{em|not}} provide a date}}.
* For either date parameter, only the year will be displayed; if a full date is provided, it is included via a tooltip; i.e., {{tla|Tooltip}}.
{{qnote|Use of the values {{dcr|w}}, {{dcr|w.}}, {{dcr|wid}}, {{dcr|wid.}}, {{dcr|widow}}, or {{dcr|widowed}} is [[Template talk:Marriage/Archive 4#Who is widowed - topic or topic's spouse?|no longer supported]] and will display an error message.}}
