{{Clear}} adds an empty HTML tag with the style = "clear: both" attribute. This forces any following content to start beneath this tag, preventing any content above it from wrapping other content around it.

It is commonly used to prevent text wraps between sections on articles with images, and should be used sparingly and with consideration for its effects on both mobile and desktop themes.

Template

{{clear}}

Example

[[File:Basic Chemistry.png|200px|left]]

Basic Chemistry

There's no {{tl|clear}} template before this second line, so it wraps around the image. This is the default wrap behavior for images.{{clear}}
Note that this text comes after a {{tl|clear}} template, so it is not wrapped around the image for Basic Chemistry.

[[File:Agriculture.png|200px|left]]Agriculture{{clear}}
This text comes after a {{tl|clear}} template placed after the File link for the image for Agriculture and the last line of text. It will be placed past the bottom of the last line of text and the Agriculture image.

renders as:
