This template is used to identify articles which, while comprehensible, contain excessive detail on trivial subjects and need to be refocused to suit a more general audience.
Usage
- Full page
{{Overly detailed|details=|date=September 2024}}- Section
{{Overly detailed|section|details=|date=September 2024}}- Suppress recommendation to split
{{Overly detailed|section|nosplit=1|details=|date=September 2024}}{{Overly detailed|nosplit=1|details=|date=September 2024}}
Date, section, nosplit, and details are all optional.
The "section" attribute, if included, customises the wording to apply only to a section of an article. The word "section" should be used as is, and not replaced with the name of the section.
The "nosplit" parameter, if set, removes the phrase spinning off or relocating any relevant information, and from the template. This is useful when details need to be removed altogether, not split off or moved elsewhere.
The "details" parameter, if set, can be used to customize the message.
This template should not be subst'ed.
Notes
This template will add tagged articles to Category:OODA WIKI articles that are excessively detailed, dated subcategories of Category:OODA WIKI articles with style issues by month and to Category:All articles with style issues.
