I seem to recall that we've depreciated drawing lines between writeups on Characters subpages (preferring the "{{break}}" template instead)... but I can't find anything in the Style Guide actually saying that. And there are other subpages and pages -- including the Main Page -- that have lines drawn on them.
Hence the question. Keep or toss?
Here's a list of the pages and categories that still use it.
That template is used to prevent drop-downs and certain templates from overlapping dividers with a hard divider, hence the name "hard line".
Keep. Useful as a rule to show one section has definitively ended on the client side as well as for formatting.
{{break}} is equally effective in preventing drop-downs and certain templates from overlapping dividers - it uses exactly the same HTML - but without the line.
Is the line worth having?
