Template:Uncited
From Wikiversity
|
There is currently no consensus on where to place this template in an article.
This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:All articles lacking sources and either Category:Articles lacking sources or a monthly category like Category:Articles lacking sources from November 2009, if a date is supplied.
The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{citations missing|article|date=November 2009}} at the top of the article.
- This template is a self-reference.
- Please do not subst: this template.
[edit] Usage
This template also has two optional fields.
The first permits the user to specify what needs to be cited. For instance, if the entire article needs to be cited, a user would enter {{citations missing|article}}; but should the user wish to be more specific on which section of the article needs to be cited, then the user could enter {{citations missing|section called "Childhood"}}. Leaving the parameter undefined is acceptable, as it will print out the default text "article or section."
The second field is a date parameter, entered as "date=month year". Adding this sorts the article into subcategories of Category:Articles lacking sources by month and out of the parent category, allowing the oldest problems to be identified and dealt with first. If the date parameter is omitted, a bot will add it later.
Note that order does not matter with respect to the above optional parameters. Both {{citations missing|section|date=November 2009}} and {{citations missing|date=November 2009|section}} will produce the same result.
