When to use: removed example of parenthetical referencing, which was deprecated in September 2020 per WP:PARREF

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}

{{Friendly standard installation}}

=== When to use ===

'''This template should be used only on articles that have sources.'''

It may be used with '''{{tl|Refimprove}}''' or other check references templates. This template should not be used with [[{{SITENAME}}:Stub|stubs]].

The most common correct use of this template is to identify an article that uses more than one major citation style (e.g., half the citations use [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Standard appendices and footers|ref tags]], and half are [[Wikipedia:Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical citations]]).

Do not place this template on articles containing ''all'' parenthetical citations, a previously acceptable citation style that is now [[Deprecation|deprecated]] per [[WP:PARREF]].

[[Wikipedia:Citing sources|Wikipedia's guidelines]] generally prohibit editors from changing from one acceptable form of inline citations to another without [[WP:Consensus|consensus]], especially for reasons of personal preference or to make one article match the style in another article.

This template may be removed by anyone who fixes the problems with confusing citation styles.

=== How to use ===
To use this template, place <code><nowiki>{{Citation style|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> on the article page or talk page in a location that may aid in conveying the message of the template. This template may be used within {{tl|Multiple issues}} and placement of this template on the article page is guided by [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup|Template messages/Cleanup]]. The following parameters may be specified for this template:

* '''{{para|date}}''' should preferably be used to categorize the article in a subcategory of [[:Category:Wikipedia references cleanup]]. This helps with addressing aged cleanup messages. (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Citation style|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>.)
* '''{{para|details}}''' may be used to provide more details on some of the aspects that should be addressed for the given article. (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Citation
style|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}|details=In particular, citation titles should be specified<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>)
* '''{{para|}}''' A first unnamed parameter may be used to specify whether the template applies to the entire article or a section of the article (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Citation style|section|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. If not specified, the first unnamed parameter defaults to "article."

=== Operation ===

This template will categorise tagged articles into [[:Category:Wikipedia references cleanup]] and [[:Category:Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify]].

This template is a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]].

This template should not be [[Help:Substitution|substituted]].
