wikipedia>Xurizuri: expanded template data, added {{TemplateDataHeader}}

2022-05-11T09:56:45Z

expanded template data, added {{TemplateDataHeader}}

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}



==Usage==
{{See also|Template:Purpose}}

To tag a statement as being in need of clarification, add the following code:

:{{Tlx|Why|reason{{=}}''Your explanation here''|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

* This tag adds pages with tagged statements into [[:Category:Wikipedia articles needing clarification]], or a dated subcategory thereof.

* To automatically add the current date, you can use [[Help:Substitution|substitution]]: <code><nowiki>{{subst:Why?}}</nowiki></code>.
* The {{para|date}} parameter need not be added by the editor: if not entered, a [[Wikipedia:Bots|bot]] will soon add it. The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13". ''Any deviation from these two rules will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.''
* The {{para|reason}} parameter is optional but often helpful. It is displayed as a [[tooltip]] in some browsers (hover the mouse here {{Why|reason=If and only if this text is displayed, the reason parameter is working in your browser|date={{currentmonthname}} {{currentyear}}}} to check behavior of your browser). For example, the following usage might be appropriate to the claim that "Humphrey Bogart has won several snooker world championships":
*:{{tnull|Why|reason{{=}}This claim isn't clear.|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
** Use only [[plain text]] for the {{para|reason}} parameter. It does not support [[Help:Wiki markup|wiki markup]] like wikilinks, which can "mess up" the tooltip.
** Double quotation marks used within the {{para|reason}} parameter will likewise "mess up" the tooltip; use single quotes or the HTML code <code>&quot;</code> instead.
* This template should be installed directly ''after'' punctuation, such as a full stop (period) or a comma.
* Remove the template when you add an explanation for a statement.
