Difference between revisions of "Category:Cleanup templates"

The pages listed in this category are templates. This page is part of Wikipedia's administration and not part of the encyclopedia. This is a category of templates used for marking articles as requiring cleanup. It is similar to Category:Request templates but the templates here are used in articles themselves instead of on talk pages. Further template category notes This category contains pages in the template namespace. It should not be used to categorize articles or pages in other namespaces. To add a template to this category: If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add  [[Category:Cleanup templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add  <noinclude>[[Category:Cleanup templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable. This category may require frequent maintenance to avoid becoming too large. It should directly contain very few, if any, pages and should mainly contain subcategories.

This category is for templates that flag some kind of article content or presentation issue that needs addressing, but which is not a core content policy dispute; typical examples include style, focus, tone, layout, markup, and metadata. For talk page notices that serve a similar purpose with regard to discussions, project pages and other non-article, Wikipedia-internal material, see Category:Notice and warning templates.

Is the article actually worthy of inclusion?

Before placing templates on a page it is worthwhile to cast a critical eye over the page to determine whether it should in fact be included in Wikipedia. Some articles can be tagged for speedy deletion or marked as an article for deletion.
