Template:Cleanup split
 | This article or section may need to be cleaned up or summarized. It has been split from/to . |
Usage
[edit]Place this at the top of a section that has grown too large and has been split but not yet summarized. It can also be placed at the top of a new article that is the result of a split, if the article still needs post-split cleanup such as a proper lead section, link and citation repair, etc.
For example, {{Cleanup split|Megabat}} produces:
| This article or section may need to be cleaned up or summarized. It has been split from/to Megabat. |
Parameters
[edit]The 1st through 20th unnamed parameters are article names for split to/from targets.
|section= with any value (such as y or true) changes the text "article or section" to just "section".
|dir=from changes the text "from/to" to just "from".
|dir=to changes the text "from/to" to just "to".
|date={{subst:DATE}} or |date=October 2025 stamps the template with the month and year it was placed in the article.
Typical use cases
[edit]For section that has been split out into new article and in the original article needs to be summarized:
{{Cleanup split|section=yes|dir=to|Megabat}}
For top of newly split article that needs post-split improvement:
{{Cleanup split|dir=from|Bat}}
