[edit] In checking for references

  • {{Fact|date=month XXXX}} or {{fact}} - asking for a reference for that fact to be cited specifically
  • {{Refimprove|date=November 2007}} - asking for the improvement of references for the article
  • {{Unreferenced|date=November 2007}}, saying that the article is unreferenced.

[edit] In cleanups

  • [[Category:Lists_of_ambiguous_human_names]] - Use {{hndis}} or {{hndis|surname, given names}} to add disambiguation pages to this category.
  • {{external links|November 2007}} or {{too many links}} - To say that external links (type or number) are a problem.
