- Articles must also demonstrate the notability of the subject. Please see our subject specific guidelines for people, bands and musicians, companies and organizations and web content and note that if you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline strongly recommends against you creating the article.

[edit] Usage
- This template should always be substituted by prefixing "subst:" inside the template code. Thus use {{subst:
Creation}}rather than{{Creation}}. - This template presumes that its use will be for a first response to an unindented post, and thus automatically indents one colon for all paragraphs. If you require more indentation (or none), you will have to manually add or remove colons after substitution.
- The template does not include automatic signing. Please remember to sign by typing four tildes (~) after the template syntax.
- This template will not work if one of the two parser functions are not included (see below).
Typing {{subst:Creation|user}} or {{subst:Creation|u}} will produce the following text for registered users:
