=== Usage ===
This template adds <code><nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki></code>, which may remove the page from some external search engines and automatically categorizes pages in [[:Category:Noindexed pages]]. This is sometimes done administratively {{crossref|(see {{section link|WikipediaProject:Template index/User pages#Handling inappropriate contentnamespace}})}}, but may also be done voluntarily by users to their own pages.
 
By default, the template displays no content.

=== Warnings ===
'''Note:''' to avoid unexpected results or unnecessary duplication, read [[WikipediaProject:Editorial guidance|Controlling search engine indexing]] to make sure you are familiar with the different ways noindexing is done.
 
This template should not be used in articles. If an article is bad enough that search engines shouldn't index it, it should be nominated for deletion. <code><nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki></code> is disabled in [[WPProject:MainManual namespaceof Style|article space]] and this template consequently has no effect there.
 
Note: major search engines should respect the NOINDEX tag, but it may take days or even weeks for content already indexed to be removed from them.
