Template:Lead extra info/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Lead extra info. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage[edit]
Place {{Lead extra info|date=May 2024}} at the top of articles where the lead section contains information that is not mentioned elsewhere in the article.
- Do use this template when a lead fact isn't discussed by the body at all. Instead use
{{Template:Not verified in body}}when the body does discuss the fact, but fails to verify it.
- Do use this template regardless of whether the fact is verified (by the lead) or not. (WP:LEADCITE allows for facts to be verified in the lead, but not for facts to only be discussed by the lead)
Notes[edit]
- This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Wikipedia introduction cleanup
