Can anyone explain to me why there is an extra newline after this template's contents?

To answer my own question, it's caused by the fact that we place newlines between each use of the template, like this: | |||
<pre> | |||
{{r|Biology}} | |||
{{r|Microbiology}} | |||
{{r|Cell Biology}} | |||
</pre> | |||
That outputs: | |||
{{r|Biology}} | |||
{{r|Microbiology}} | |||
{{r|Cell Biology}} | |||
But the r template itself adds an asterisk, which adds its own newline (''before'' the asterisk). That's two newlines. To eliminate extra newlines, you could do this: | |||
<pre> | |||
{{r|Biology}}{{r|Microbiology}}{{r|Cell Biology}} | |||
</pre> | |||
which outputs:{{r|Biology}}{{r|Microbiology}}{{r|Cell Biology}} | |||

To answer my own question, it's caused by the fact that we place newlines between each use of the template, like this:
{{r|Biology}}
{{r|Microbiology}}
{{r|Cell Biology}}
That outputs:
- Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
- Microbiology [r]: The study of microorganisms (overlapping with areas of virology, bacteriology, mycology, and parasitology). [e]
- Cell Biology [r]: The study of the components of cells and their interactions. [e]
But the r template itself adds an asterisk, which adds its own newline (before the asterisk). That's two newlines. To eliminate extra newlines, you could do this:
{{r|Biology}}{{r|Microbiology}}{{r|Cell Biology}}
which outputs:
- Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
- Microbiology [r]: The study of microorganisms (overlapping with areas of virology, bacteriology, mycology, and parasitology). [e]
- Cell Biology [r]: The study of the components of cells and their interactions. [e]
