| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Definition needed. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.
Usage
This template should be used in articles where a term is used that lacks definition, so that is unclear what is being referred to when using the term. This requests that a definition be provided, so that the meaning of the sentence can be ascertained.
{{Definition needed|date=April 2026}}
This produces:
This template will add the article tagged to Category:Wikipedia articles needing clarification or a monthly subcategory thereof.
