Template:Update after
In today's world, Template:Update after is a highly relevant topic that has generated extensive debate and discussion in society. Since its emergence, Template:Update after has captured the attention of people from different fields and has been the subject of analysis and reflection by experts in the field. Its impact on various aspects of daily life, both individually and collectively, has generated a growing interest in understanding its implications and consequences. In this article, we will explore the various dimensions of Template:Update after, analyzing its evolution, its challenges and opportunities, as well as its possible implications in the future.
 | This template is used on approximately 5,100 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template remains inactive (invisible except to editors) until the specified date, when [needs update] is displayed and the page is added to the Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating or one of its dated subcategories. For additional functionality see below.
Usage
{{Update after|year|month|day|category|reason=...|text=...}} (all parameters are optional)
- Parameters 1, 2, and 3 are respectively the year, month, and day that the template should activate. If the day is omitted, the template will activate on the first day following the specified month. If the month is also omitted, the template will activate on 1 January of the year following the specified year. If the year is also omitted, the template will activate immediately. One should try to specify month and year. If parameters 1, 2, and 3 are left blank, a bot will add it later.
- Parameter 4 is a custom category, such as a WikiProject's article maintenance category. The article will be placed in the specified category when the template is activated (but only if the template is used in an article in the main namespace, not if it is used on a talk page or in any other non-main namespace). The category name must be specified without square brackets and without the "Category:" prefix. In addition to any category specified here, articles are automatically placed in Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating or one of its dated subcategories, when the date is specified. To use this parameter even when the first three parameters are omitted, you can write
|4=.- Examples: Specifying
|4=United States articles in need of updatingplaces the article in Category:United States articles in need of updating as well as Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating. Note: at present this parameter is not being used on Wikipedia.
- Examples: Specifying
- Named parameter
|reason=is used to leave a note for future editors about what exactly needs to be changed or where to find the new information. Note is displayed in tooltip when mouse cursor hovers over "dated info" link. - Named parameter
|text=is used to highlight dated text. Until the template activates, the text is displayed ordinarily, as if it was not wrapped.
Do not. . .
Please read Wikipedia:Avoid statements that will date quickly; use {{Update after}} only in exceptional cases. Do not use this template on pages which simply need to be reviewed later to see if they might need updating; it should only be used when there is a certainty or very high probability that an update is needed. Do not use this template on talk pages; it is intended for inline usage, like {{Citation needed}}. It is probably not necessary to use this template on frequently edited articles such as for current events, as they will be being updated on a regular basis. Do not use this template within a section heading as it will count as part of the heading and thus break the heading.
