Template:Trivia

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

To help with the categorization of articles, you may use the optional date parameter, e.g. {{trivia|date=December 2024}}. Articles tagged with this template without the parameter will eventually be given the parameter by a bot.

The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{trivia|date=December 2024}}

Editors should not use this template to tag sections they consider trivial. In accordance with Wikipedia:Trivia sections, this template should only be placed at the top of sections that contain indiscriminate and unselective lists.

This template sorts articles into Category:Articles with trivia sections.

Related templates
