Template:MC/Missing information/doc

This template should be used when certain necessary information is absent from the article. Please open a corresponding discussion detailing the missing information on the article's discussion page before placing the tag. If a consensus is reached that the information should be included, it is inserted in the article and the template is removed, or if no one contested the proposal, keep waiting to prevent adding unsourced information.

This may assist in avoiding edit-warring by making a good faith attempt to achieve consensus before putting a particular piece of information in an article, especially if it's controversial information. This template adds articles to the Category:Articles to be expanded.

Usage

{{Missing information|1|2|category=Custom category|talksection=Talk page section|type=Category changer}}

• The Template:P parameter adds at the end what it is missing.
• The Template:P parameter changes the "article" word to what is written on the Template:P parameter, and then adds at the end what is missing.
  • If Template:P, the template changes to a section mode.
• The Template:P parameter allows one to set a custom category. This parameter is incompatible with Template:P.
• The Template:P parameter changes the "talk page" text to link to a specific section of the talk page.
• The Template:P parameter changes the category the template sets to articles:
  • If Template:P, it sets the Category:Articles missing historical information.
  • If Template:P, it sets the Category:Articles missing data values.
  • If Template:P, it sets the Category:Articles missing technical information.
