 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Context. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's users and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy, as the standard installation of Twinkle adds and removes this template. Thank you! |
Usage
Place {{Context|date=November 2024}} at the top of an article of which you believe does not identify itself sufficiently to readers unfamiliar with its subject.
The word "article" may be replaced with "section", "list", etc. For example: {{Context|section|date=November 2024}} will produce
 | This section provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject. (November 2024) |
While the |reason= parameter can be added to almost any template to provide an in-wikitext rationale for the template (e.g., a sentence on what the concerns are) that is usually visible only to editors, the |details= parameter can be used to make the template display a (short!) indication of the contextual information that is needed. E.g., using |details=date range this organization was operating changes "... by providing more context for the reader." to "... by providing more context for the reader, especially: date range this organization was operating."
