Usage
This template can be used to mark articles or sections with old or out-of-date information.
To add the date when the tag was added, use:
{{Update|date=November 2024}}
To specify what parts of the article need updating, use the first unnamed parameter:
{{Update|Foo [[bar]] qux}}
To display the date of the last update, use the second unnamed parameter:
{{Update||24 October 2024}}
To mark a section, use:
{{Update section}}
Example
{{Update|documentation}}
| File:Ambox current red Asia Australia.svg | Parts of this template (those related to documentation) need to be updated. Please update this template to reflect recent events or newly available information. |
The template detects which namespace it is used in and changes accordingly:
| Article |
| ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Category |
| ||
| Template |
|
This template will add articles to Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating.
Alternatives
- If there is a dispute about the need for an update, an out-of-date article or section can be marked with {{Out of date}}.
- {{Update after}} is an alternative for individual statements that will be out-of-date at a specifiable future date. It is a more recent and preferred alternative to Wikipedia:As of. It also adds articles to Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating.
- See Wikipedia:Template_messages/Cleanup#Time-sensitive for alternatives unrelated to out-of-date information.
