The subject of this article is in the news regarding a reported transaction. Information regarding the transaction may be based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. Breaking news reports may be unreliable. |
Guidelines
Do not subst.
- This template is for sports articles, particularly professional athletes in team sports, that are in the news for a transaction, such as a trade or a new contract. This is an advisory to readers that the transaction may be awaiting an official announcement, and that readers should therefore be cautious about the content presented.
- Note that every article on Wikipedia has a General disclaimer indicating that the article contents may not be accurate. As such, this template is redundant.
- As an advisory to editors, it may also be used to indicate that an athlete should not be affiliated with a team without referencing an official announcement. Unofficial reports from reliable sources, if mentioned, must be attributed to the news source (e.g. "ACME News reports that John Doe was traded ...").
- Generally it is expected that this template and its closely related templates will appear on an article for perhaps a day or two, occasionally several days, until the transaction is officially confirmed, denied, or does not materialize.
Usage
This template contains 4 optional parameters:
- Unnamed parameter 1 overrides the word article to any text (e.g. section).
- sport, automatically switches the image to be more specific to replace the athletic shoe image. Currently supports: American football, Australian rules football, baseball, basketball, cricket, hockey, lacrosse, rugby, soccer.
- trans, changes transaction to any text specified (e.g. trade, contract).
- reason, changes the text after trans, i.e. "may be based on anonymous sources ..." to any specified text.
