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? — Pill-37.png Talk · Cont 00:52, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

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* -- Sekoia 02:03, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
