Template:Overly detailed

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

This template is used to identify articles which, while understandable, have excessive information about trivial subjects and need to be refocused to suit a more general audience.

Usage

{{Overly detailed|date=October 2025}}

Section

{{Overly detailed|date=October 2025|section=yes}}

"Date" and "section" are both optional. The "section" attribute, if included, customises the wording to apply only to a section of an article.
