Template:ITN note/doc

This template can be placed at the top of the talk pages of articles that are the subject of an item nominated to appear in Template:In the news on the main page.

{{ITN note|<!-- Nomination's heading on Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates page -->|date={{subst:#time: j F Y}}}}

The template has two parameters:

  • The unnamed parameter is the section heading used for the discussion on the candidates page. If it is not specified, then the date will be taken from the date parameter; otherwise the link will simply be to Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates.
  • The "date" parameter, which may be specified automatically to the current date via the code above.

While multiple items can be wikilinked in a proposed blurb, this template should be used on the talk page of the bold-linked article covering the proposed item's primary subject.

Transclusions of this template should be occasionally checked to ensure that no out-of-date messages are currently on display.
