Place {{Tlx|Lead too short|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}} at the top of articles where the [[WP:LEAD|lead section]] is much shorter than what is recommended. The appropriate length of the lead section depends on the total length of the article. If the lead fails to provide an accessible overview of the article's key points, without being too short, use the template {{Tl|Inadequate lead}} instead.
