Template:External links/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:External links (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
When to use[edit]
Add this to the top of the External links section whenever:
- There are too many links for this article. (Most editors object to more than about eight or sometimes ten links, but the best number for a given article depends on the specific circumstances, and may range from zero to more than a dozen.)
- One or more of the links present (regardless of number) are inappropriate for any reason.
If there are external links within the body of an article (which is almost always inappropriate), this tag should be placed at the top of the article instead.
Please consider fixing the problem yourself, rather than using this tag to ask someone else to do it. Don't forget to remove this template when the concerns appear to have been resolved.
Usage[edit]
Use:
- {{External links|date=November 2024}} or
- {{External links|section|date=November 2024}} to apply to a single section
This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Festipedia external links cleanup and Category:Festipedia spam cleanup.
