Description
Places a box that warns of missing/wanted information on the page.
Syntax
Type {{MissingInfo}}
at the start or end of an article.
To specify details, type {{MissingInfo|<details>}}
, where <details>
is to be replaced with the details of what information must be added.
Usage
Use this template on pages that aren't short or unfinished enough to be stubs, but are missing some needed or wanted information. This automatically places the article in Category:Needs Information, allowing these unfinished pages to be found easily.
It is recommended to add some details on what information is needed using the first parameter.
If you substitute this template AND add your username as a second parameter, it will automatically place Template:Claim using your username (and with the default time of 1 hour). This is rather unideal since it leaves all the template code on the page, but it can be useful when you want to add the missing information yourself within the hour. You can place this template and save the page before beginning your actual edit, then delete all text related to this template after finishing your edit. You could just use the claim template alone...
Parameters
Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Details | 1 | Additional details on what info the page is missing. Can be instructions on what to do in the future.
| Content | suggested |
Username | 2 | If you wish to place a claim of 1 hour, specify your username here. Only works if you substitute the template.
| Line | optional |
Sample
The following input:
{{MissingInfo|abc}}
Produces:
To do: abc
Though in actuality the template is being substituted to avoid placing the category.
