Help:Maintenance template removal
This help article describes when a maintenance template, such as a stub warning or a current event warning, should be removed.
Stub warning
A stub warning is a message that appears before any article that is deemed to be incomplete. The message is similar to the following:
This article is a stub. You can help the Osolia Wiki by expanding it.
This warning should only be removed once an article is complete, having as much information on the subject as is available at the time of the message's removal.
Current event
This message appears before any article that is covering an event that has not fully developed yet, such as a currently-active election cycle.
Below is the message:
This article documents a current event. Information may change rapidly as the event progresses, and initial reports may be unreliable. The latest updates to this article may not reflect the most current information. |
This message should only be removed once an event has reached its conclusion, such as when the final vote tally is released for an election, or a news story has reached its conclusion.
