Template:Incomprehensible

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

This template places articles into Category:Festipedia articles needing clarification.
Please use the |reason= parameter to provide details.

Notes:

The date-substitution template may be used to automatically generate the date, e.g., {{Incomprehensible|{{SUBST:DATE}}}}. See Help:Templates#subst for more information.
The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13". Any deviation from these two rules will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.

|date=October 2025 - required parameter
|reason=text - optional parameter which adds advisory text
|machine=yes - optional parameter which adds "Sometimes this can be due to machine translation."
|section=text - optional parameter which changes the word "article" to "section" if 'y', 'yes', '1', or 'true' or its value otherwise
|talk=section - optional parameter which indicates the talk page section
|small=left - optional parameter which allows the use of the small format

Paste-ready example: {{Incomprehensible|date=October 2025}}

Example with reason: {{Incomprehensible|date=October 2025|reason=}}

Example with talk: {{Incomprehensible|date=October 2025|talk=}}
