Template:Section cleanup

Instructions for {{Section cleanup}}

{{Section cleanup}} produces a small, in-line flag which marks a section as something that needs cleanup, allowing greater specificity than {{cleanup}}.

Usage

The template can be used with either an automatically-generated message, or one that you add yourself.

If you type {{section cleanup}} then you'll get:

This section needs a cleanup.

It contains several grammatical or factual errors, or otherwise offends our our Manual of Style.

If, however, you want to define what's wrong with the section, you can use this format:

{{section cleanup|reason}}

This section needs a cleanup.

This section just has ugly grammar throughout.

Caveats

This template should always be placed directly underneath a section header. It will look ugly if placed within the body of a section, because it only has margins specified for the right and bottom of the box. Note that this box intentionally does not clear in any direction. That's why you're seeing what appears to be odd positioning, above. We want this template to have text flowing around it. You will never have two of these boxes in close proximity to each other in real use, so the effect you see, above — where headers are to the right of this template — will never occur on regular pages. Instead what you should actually get is something that looks like the following section.

What it looks like when properly placed
