The template {{Colon character}}
produces a single colon character ( : )
without any special interpretation by the mediawiki parser.
For convenience, this template has the alias template:; and is more often called as:
{{;}}
Semicolon is used because the colon is a not a valid template name.
Normally a colon at the start of a line or element produces a line break and indentation. This template does not.
