Template:Cleanup
This template is used for maintenance purposes to signal that a page needs some tender, loving care, or maybe brutal pruning. Marked pages will automatically be added to Category:Pages marked for cleanup.
This template uses {{Notice}}
to create the box and it's not visible on mobile devices (added class nomobile
).
Usage
To use, put {{Cleanup|reason}}
at the start of the page.

.
Placeholder-
indicates parameters that are not used by default and need to be added by hand, e.g.|noCategories = 1
.
