Template:Music-examples
 | This template may need or be missing audio or musical examples. (April 2024) |
Template documentation | This template should not be substituted. |
| This template may need or be missing audio or musical examples. The specific problem is: Lots of editors don't use this "reason=" parameter, so they leave it unclear as to what needs to be cleaned up. If this parameter is not used, then a bot should remove this tag or the tag should be rendered invisible. (February 2012) |
Usage
{{Music-examples}} should be used with the following two parameters:
- reason: the reason for requesting cleanup. This is useful for editors in case the reason for requesting a cleanup is not immediately obvious. The first character of the reason (immediately after the equals sign) should be lowercase, in order to preserve the sentence flow when rendered.
- date: the month and year (e.g. April 2024) when the Cleanup template was added to the article; this helps to figure out how long an article has been tagged for cleanup.
For example, {{Music-examples|reason=the article is full of incorrect capitalisation|date=April 2024}} would display as:
| This article may need or be missing audio or musical examples. The specific problem is: the article is full of incorrect capitalisation. (April 2024) |
The template should be placed at the top of the article requiring a cleanup. If practicable, please use a more specific cleanup template. Because {{Music-examples}} is general , specific problems should be identified in the reason field; a more detailed explanation of what needs to be done can be provided on the article's talk page. An article's {{Music-examples}} template may be removed without the problem(s) being fixed if it is not possible to identify what needs to be cleaned-up.

The descriptor (on the preceding example "template") can be changed from its default using the first parameter, for instance {{Music-examples|section}} or {{Music-examples|disambiguation page}}.
Add a new section to the talk page explaining the type and extent of clean-up required so editors will know what to address, and when to remove this template.
Do not substitute this template.
Use this tag when the article needs improvement per WP:BETTER. Articles that violate policy need more direct action.
