This template is intended to be used on feedback pages and talk pages for software deployments. It floats right-aligned next to whichever content it precedes. Imagine we see a comment like the following:
 
 
 
<div style="margin-left:4em;">
 
{| class="wikitable" width="500px"
 
|-
 
|
 
Your software is broken. It doesn't even work on Windows ME. When I try to load it, Bill Gates appears on my screen and laughs manically. --[[Special:Mypage|Dogmaster3000]] 01:17, 14 December 2011 (PST)
 
|}
 
</div>
 
 
 
Now let's say we want to note that there's a bug in the bug tracker for this. We'll add the following code: <code><nowiki>{{tracked|300}}</nowiki></code> (where 300 is the number of the bug).
 
 
 
<div style="margin-left:4em;">
 
'''Sample output:'''
 
{| class="wikitable" width="500px"
 
|-
 
|
 
{{Tracked|300}}

|}
 
</div>
 
 
 
We can leave it at that. If we'd like to note the fact that the bug's been fixed, we can note its status, via <code><nowiki>{{tracked|300|fixed}}</nowiki></code>. In addition to <code>fixed</code>, we support <code>wontfix</code>, <code>later</code> and <code>invalid</code> resolution. (Style note: We're not using big scary red colors for the resolution to avoid scaring or annoying the reporter.) Example with the <code>fixed</code> keyword:
 
 
 
<div style="margin-left:4em;">
 
'''Sample output:'''
 
{| class="wikitable" width="500px"
 
|-
 
|
 
{{Tracked|300|fixed}}

|}
 
</div>
 
 
 
Last but not least, we can mark a bug as critical. We deliberately aren't using this keyword for bugs which are resolved one way or another -- the point of adding this to the template is to note to all readers of the page that the seriousness of a bug has been critical. '''This keyword should only be used if the bug has also been marked as critical in Bugzilla.''' Example usage: <code><nowiki>{{Tracked|300|critical}}</nowiki></code>
 
 
 
<div style="margin-left:4em;">
 
'''Sample output:'''
 
{| class="wikitable" width="500px"

Of course, feel free to avoid using this template if tracking a comment is not useful.
