Adapt local policies, template notices and guidance for independent Elite Dangerous Wiki; preserve index layout
 
Line 12:
== Usage ==
Do not use this as the ''only'' message box on the article or section; it should be used with at least two other message boxes contained inside it.<br/>
Search for the best templates to express your issues at [[WikipediaProject:Template index|Template messages]] or [[WikipediaProject:Template index|Template messages/Examples]].
 
The syntax for the template is:
Line 21:
...
}}</syntaxhighlight>
where ''Issue 1'', ''Issue 2'', ''Issue 3'', etc. are article maintenance templates (see [[WikipediaProject:Template index|Template messages/Cleanup]]), which take their usual parameters, and {{Tl|Ambox}} templates, which usually should not be used. Each of these templates should be placed on individual lines, but must not be separated from each other by [[pipe character|pipes]] or template parameters, because that would cause some or all of the banners to be hidden.
 
A {{para|section|yes{{!}}}} parameter can be used to modify the template to be used below a section header.
Line 62:
* '''Redundant issues:''' Please do not insert tags that are too similar to or redundant with each other. All articles that read like essays have an inappropriate tone, and in fact they end up in the same category, so it is unnecessary to add {{tl|tone}} in addition to {{tl|essay-like}}. {{tl|Cleanup}} is very vague and so should be replaced with a more specific template whenever possible.
* '''Too many issues:''' {{anchor|Too many issues}}Similarly, if an article has many problems, please consider listing only the most important. A lengthy list is often less helpful than a shorter one. Remember that this tag is not intended as a [[badge of shame]].
* '''Only one issue:''' Don't use this template for a single issue; just use the stand-alone template. See [[WikipediaProject:Template index|Template messages/Cleanup]] for a list of available tags.
* '''Text display:''' {{tl|Ambox}}-based templates like [[WPProject:maintenanceTemplate templatesdocumentation|maintenance templates]] display {{para|issue}}, {{para|fix}}, and {{para|info}}. When used inside {{tl|Multiple issues}}, they show only {{para|issue}}.

* {{tl|Stub}} and the [[:Category:Stub categories]] for a more appropriate way to tag most very short articles.
