Template:Monthly clean-up category/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

The simplest usage is just {{Monthly clean-up category}} In this case a default message page for that group of categories will need to exist. See Template:Monthly clean-up category/Messages for a list of existing message pages and to understand the naming convention.

Also the category will need to follow the naming convention "Blah blah from December 2024". (See #Limitations for more information.)

If a red-linked counter category is shown, simply populate it with {{Counter category}}.

Parameter toc

[edit]
  • toc = focus - gives a focus letter
  • toc = toc - give a category style table of contents
  • toc = none -

Parameter hidden

[edit]
  • hidden = n - The category will not be hidden.

}}

silly articles should be deleted So that articles don't remain in this category too long, a suggestion is made to work on articles beginning with a certain letter. The letter is changed daily.

The current focus is on articles beginning with: P.

Limitations

[edit]

If the category name does not follow the convention "Blah blah from December 2024", the template will need to have "year" "month name" and "monthno" supplied.

Example

[edit]
...
 | monthno = {{CURRENTMONTH}}
 | month name = {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}
 | year    = {{CURRENTYEAR}}
...
