Template:Expand further/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Expand further. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
- Notification that an article's "Further reading" section points to sources of new information, without which the article is not comprehensive.
- Adds article to Category:Articles to be expanded.
If you do not want to explicitly point to the "Further reading" section, you will need to set |further=<syntaxhighlight lang="text" enclose="none">no</syntaxhighlight>.
Instructions to apply template
- Create a Further reading section in the article and list the sources you wish to be used.
- Add
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code in the Further reading section, just before the sources.
- Consider describing the sources on the article's discussion page if their potential value isn't obvious.
Instructions to act on template
- When the article incorporates a requested source, cite it as a reference and remove its now-redundant Further reading entry.
- When the article's Further reading section is empty, delete the section header and the template.
- If the article's coverage is still inadequate, but you don't have a new source to suggest, consider using
{{expand section}}.
