	The {{tl\|Selfref}} template adds a [[WP:HAT\|hatnote]] ~~to a Wikipedia article~~ that will ''not appear'' in any [[WP:Reusing Wikipedia content\|reuse of Wikipedia article content]]. In [[WP:Glossary\|Wikipedia terminology]], self-references in an article usually mention Wikipedia directly or tell readers to take an action that has to take place on Wikipedia, such as editing the article.

The {{tlf\|Selfref\|text}} template adds to a Wikipedia article a [[WP:HAT\|hatnote]] (in this case, merely: ''text'') that will ''not appear'' in any [[WP:Reusing Wikipedia content\|reuse of Wikipedia article content]].

			The {{tl\|Selfref}} template adds a [[WP:HAT\|hatnote]] to a Wikipedia article that will ''not appear'' in any [[WP:Reusing Wikipedia content\|reuse of Wikipedia article content]]. In [[WP:Glossary\|Wikipedia terminology]], self-references in an article usually mention Wikipedia directly or tell readers to take an action that has to take place on Wikipedia, such as editing the article. Typically, self-references within Wikipedia articles to the Wikipedia project should be avoided. Reading such information off-site would only cause confusion.

			With this template, you can safely make a self-reference ''where needed'', but that need is rare. Before using this template, make sure the self-reference that you're thinking of adding doesn't fall into one of the types listed at [[Wikipedia:Self-references to avoid]]. Most other hatnote templates, such as {{t\|for}} and {{t\|about}} support a {{para\|selfref}} parameter which may be more convenient to use.

			To see this behavior, view a [[Wikipedia:Keyboard_shortcuts#List_of_access_keys\|printable version]] of an article that has a self-reference hatnote, and notice how this template masks its content.

			== Usage ==
			This template should not be [[WP:Template substitution\|substituted]].

			In most cases, {{tlf\|Selfref}} is used to create a disambiguation link to a page in the "Wikipedia:" namespace from article-space; for instance, the page [[Objectivity (disambiguation)]] could have a self-referential "[[WP:HATNOTE\|hatnote]]" link at the top: <code><nowiki>{{Selfref\|For Wikipedia's policy on avoiding bias, see [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view]].}}</nowiki></code>.

			When using {{tlf\|Selfref}} in this way, use the following format:
			<pre>
			{{Selfref\|The self-referential notice to display, including links.}}
			</pre>
			which produces:
			{{Selfref\|The self-referential notice to display, including links.}}
			When using {{tlf\|Selfref}} in this way, the text will be indented slightly, italicized (Wikipedia house style for self-referential notes), and both preceded and followed by a linebreak.

			For inline use (in body text, mid-sentence, and {{em\|not}} in hatnotes), without the indentation and line breaking, use {{tlx\|Selfref inline}}:
			<pre>
			{{Selfref inline\|the self-referential text to display, including links}}
			</pre>
			which produces: {{Selfref inline\|the self-referential text to display, including links}} (illustrated here on the same line as other content).

			Template {{tnull\|Selfref}} also has the parameter {{para\|\|inline}}:
			<pre>
			{{Selfref\|the self-referential text to display, including links\|inline}}
			</pre>
			but it does not always function properly as of early 2019, and may cause a line break under some circumstances.

			=== Unprintworthy content ===
			Rarely, there is other, non-self-referential content which shouldn't appear in mirrors, print editions, or other off-Wikipedia reuses of Wikipedia content, and which shouldn't be italicized as a self-reference.

			It is preferable to mark such unprintworthy content with the {{tl\|Unprintworthy inline}} template (which includes the <code>noprint</code> CSS class, but not the <code>plainlinks</code> class, since links in such content will not be internal self-references). Although not all [[WP:Mirrors and forks\|mirror sites]] do so, the content in question can be removed by reusers of WP content, without any reformatting, by ignoring or removing content marked up by this template, or more accurately by the <code>selfreference</code> CSS class that it (and some other templates) use.

			A {{em\|deprecated}}, "brittle", legacy usage of {{tlf\|Selfref}} has technically also been used for such unprintworthy cases, and pre-dates the {{tl\|Unprintworthy inline}} template. This is to simply end the template with a pipe character – <code>\|</code>:
			{{dc2\|1=<pre>
			{{Selfref\|the unprintworthy text to display without self-ref styling\|}}</pre>}}
			This method cannot be depended upon (for one thing, many editors will interpret the pipe as an error and remove it, turning the template into an indented self-ref hatnote!). This syntax has been obsolete since 2008, and any remaining uses of it should be replaced with {{tl\|Selfref inline}} (if real self-references) or {{tl\|Unprintworthy inline}} (if simply unprintworthy).

			== Example ==
			{\|border=1 class="wikitable"
			! Code !! Page on Wikipedia !! Page on [some] mirrors
			\|-
			\| <code><nowiki>{{Selfref\|For the Wikipedia Sandbox, see [[WP:SAND]]}}</nowiki></code>

			<code><nowiki>The Wikipedia Sandbox is a page on Wikipedia. {{Selfref\|(You can edit it by clicking "edit" on the page.)\|inline}} It has been edited many times.</nowiki></code>
			\| {{Selfref\|For the Wikipedia Sandbox, see [[WP:SAND]]}}

			The Wikipedia Sandbox is a page on Wikipedia. {{Selfref\|(You can edit it by clicking "edit" on the page.)\|inline}} It has been edited many times.
			\| The Wikipedia Sandbox is a page on Wikipedia. It has been edited many times.
