The template
This article reads like a news release, or is otherwise written in an overly promotional tone. Please help rewrite this article from a neutral point of view to be less promotional. Where appropriate, blatant advertising may be marked for speedy deletion with {{db-spam}}. |
Documentation
This template should be used when the article appears to have been written by a public relations agent acting on behalf of the subject of the article, or having some connection with the subject. It is used when the article is not necessarily a blatant advertisement, but is still overly promotional in tone.
Placement
Place at the top of the article to alert editors.
Usage
You may use the optional date parameter, e.g. {{newsrelease|date=January 2026}}. This helps with the categorization of articles requiring attention.
The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{newsrelease|date=January 2026}} 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.
Notes
- This template will add tagged articles to Category:Wikipedia articles needing style editing.
- This template is a self-reference.
- Please do not subst: this template.
Redirects
- None.
