This template inserts a black horizontal rule. It should be used in transcriptions in preference to wiki syntax "----", which inserts a rule but in a lighter colour. Furthermore there can be no certainty that the rendering of "----" will not change in the future.
For example
{{rule}}
produces
The common case of a double-rule can be achieved by
{{rule}}{rule}}
which produces
A width may optionally be provided, in which case a black horizontal rule of that width is centered on the line.
For example
{{rule|width=12em}}
produces
For an example of its use in an actual transcription, see The Perth gazette and Western Australian journal/Volume 1/Number 9.
