This is a documentation subpage for Template:Incomprehensible inline.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template should not be substituted.

Usage

This template places articles into Category:Wikipedia articles that are incomprehensible.
Please use the |reason= parameter to provide details.

Notes:

The date-substitution template may be used to automatically generate the date, e.g., ((Incomprehensible inline|((SUBST:DATE)))). See Help:Substitution for more information.
The |date= parameter need not be added by the editor: if not entered, a bot will soon add it. The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13". Any deviation from these two rules will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.

Parameters

|date=March 2024 - required parameter, will be added by a bot if omitted
|reason=text - optional parameter which adds advisory text

Examples

Basic example: ((Incomprehensible inline))

Paste-ready example: ((Incomprehensible inline|date=March 2024))

Example with reason: ((Incomprehensible inline|date=March 2024|reason=))
