Usage

This template can be used to mark articles or sections that have old or out-of-date information. Include the reason why an article needs updating, unless the reason is very obvious.

• To specify what parts of the page need updating, use the first unnamed parameter (or name it |part= or number it |1=): {{Update|part=the later-life and death material and the [[#Legacy|Legacy]] section|date=अप्रैल 2024}}
• To use the template in one specific section, and change its wording to refer to the section instead of the page, use |section and insert the template at the top of the section: {{Update|section|date=अप्रैल 2024}}
• To display the date (in whatever format) of the last significant update to the page, use the second unnamed parameter (or name it |updated= or number it |2=): {{Update|updated=26 मार्च 2024|date=अप्रैल 2024}}

  Note: The parameter name or number must be used if the first numbered/unnamed parameter is not used.

• To add the date when the tag was added (this is used for cleanup categorization), use: {{Update|date=अप्रैल 2024}}

  You can also do: {{Update|{{subst:DATE}}}}

• To explain that the article now has inaccuracies (not just missing information) due to being outdated, use |inaccurate=yes: {{Update|inaccurate=yes|date=अप्रैल 2024}}
• To link to a particular section of the talk page where the update is being discussed, use |talk=Section title (|talksection= and |discuss= are equivalent to |talk=): {{Update|talk=Shall we update this for 2024?|date=अप्रैल 2024}}
• To display a reason, use |reason=a short comment here, e.g. {{Update|reason=Is missing the अप्रैल 2024 election results|date=अप्रैल 2024}}
• These parameters can be combined: {{update|part=The [[#Production|Production]] section and follow-on material|reason=the film is released, so this needs a "Critical reception" section, too|inaccurate=yes|talk=Post-release updating|updated=जनवरी 2024|date=अप्रैल 2024}}

Example

{{Update|documentation|date=अप्रैल 2024}}

The template detects which namespace it is used in and changes accordingly:

Article
Category
Template

{{Update|section}} produces:

Article
Category
Template

This template will add mainspace articles to Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating (this category is not populated by pages in other namespaces).

For factual inaccuracies, stronger wording is used and mainspace articles will be added to Category:Articles with obsolete information.

{{Update|inaccurate=yes}}
