Template:Dicdef: Difference between revisions

This article appears to be a dictionary definition. Please rewrite it to present the subject from an encyclopedic point of view. If it cannot be turned into a full encyclopedia article in the near future, consider moving it to Wiktionary.

Steps for moving to Wiktionary:

Check that this article meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
Check that Wiktionary does not have an article on this word or phrase, as verified using the search page.

If Wiktionary has a definition already, change this tag to {{TWCleanup2}} or else consider a soft redirect to Wiktionary by replacing the text on this page with {{Wi}}. If Wiktionary does not have the definition yet, consider moving the whole article to Wiktionary by replacing this tag with the template {{Copy to Wiktionary}}.

This template will no longer automatically categorize articles as candidates to move to Wiktionary.

Usage

Use this template to mark 'dictionary definitions'- articles that define a term, and cover its usage. It should be used for articles that need further evaluation to decide what to do with them (e.g. rewrite, merge, copy to wiktionary, delete). This category is considered a temporary maintenance category. It is most useful for the links it generates to Wiktionary for word comparison and evaluation purposes.

Parameter 1 may be included to replace "article" with a specific term, such as "section" or "table". For example:

{{Dicdef|section|date=November 2024}}
