With this template #if can be used in a way such that it does not strip spaces and newlines from the "then" and "else" part. For evaluating the condition spaces and newlines are stripped like with ParserFunctions.
This template can be substituted.
Usage[edit source]
{{ifnotempty| x | A | B }}gives " A "{{ifnotempty|x| A | B }}gives " A "{{ifnotempty| | A | B }}gives " B "{{ifnotempty|| A | B }}gives " B "
Compare:
{{#if:x| A | B }}gives "A"{{#if:| A | B }}gives "B"
