Template:Uw-biog-not

Please do not add content which gives undue weight to some statement about a living person. On Wikipedia, we take particular care over articles about living people.

New information, even if referenced, should be added only if noteworthy, relevant and documented in multiple reliable third-party sources. Wikipedia is not a newspaper and material should not be added if it is only gossip or has little longer-term importance, or if the only sourcing is tabloid journalism.

If challenged, the onus is on the editor who adds the content to justify its retention. Thank you.

Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit "Template:Uw-biog-not/doc" to edit its documentation if it is available. (How does this work?)

Usage

• {{subst:Uw-biog-not}}
• {{subst:Uw-biog-not||Additional text}} or {{subst:Uw-biog-not|2=Additional text}} adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you"

Please remember to substitute the template using {{subst:Uw-biog-not}} rather than {{Uw-biog-not}}.

To customize your message, a parameter is available to add additional text at the end of the message. If your param value contains an equal sign (as urls often do), then be sure to explicitly specify the positional parameter by number; i.e., use |1= or |2= followed by the value; e.g., |1=XYZ=Repainting, or |2=https://www.bbc.com/search?q=Kent+weather.
