Description

This template will add tagged articles to a cleanup category according to the month and year given.

Usage

{{Prose|date=November 2024}} → Category:Articles needing cleanup from November 2024 and Category:Articles with sections that need to be turned into prose from November 2024.

If no date is given, articles will be added to the more general Category:Wikipedia cleanup and Category:Articles with sections that need to be turned into prose.

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

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