This template should be used when the article appears to have abbreviations that may be confusing to the layman, or even to everyone.

Placement

Place at the top of the article and/or sections to alert editors.

Usage

articles
  • For articles needing major clean-up, place {{abbreviations|article}} at the top of the main page to alert readers.
  • For articles needing minor clean-up, place {{abbreviations|article}} at the top of the talk page to alert editors.
sections
  • To mark specific sections instead of the whole article, place {{abbreviations|section}} at the top of the section.
remarks
  • The default words "article or section" are replaceable so you can specify whether the template applies to the whole article or just a section, eg."{{abbreviations|section}}".
  • To replace the default text "abbreviations", you may use {{abbreviations|article/section|yourtext}} or {{abbreviations|2=yourtext}}
  • You may use the optional date parameter, e.g. {{abbreviations|date=November 2025}}. This helps with the categorization of articles requiring attention.
  • The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{abbreviations|date=November 2025}} at the top of the article or talk page.
  • Add a new item to the talk page explaining the problem so editors will know what to address, and when to remove this tag.
  • This template adds articles to Category:Wikipedia articles needing style editing
