This template is added to entries for hot words. These are terms that were recently coined but have become widely used in that short time. They fail the Criteria For Inclusion only on the "spanning more than a year" requirement, but are otherwise includable.
There are two templates which are used differently:
{{hot word}}is used to tag whole entries. It should be placed at the top of the entry, much like{{rfv}}or{{wikipedia}}.{{hot sense}}is used to tag single senses. It should be placed before the sense and any context labels, right after the#, much like{{rfv-sense}}.
Parameters
|date=- The date of first attestation of this term. Mandatory. If you don't know, use the date that the entry was first created. The date format can be anything that the
{{#time:}}parser function understands, but the formatYYYY-MM-DDis preferred. |1=(for{{hot word}}only)- The language code of the entry the template is placed in. Mandatory. The parameter
|lang=is a deprecated synonym; please do not use.
Operation
The template compares the given date with the current date. If the given date is less than a year ago, the entry is placed in Category:Hot words newer than a year. If between one year and two years ago, it goes in Category:Hot words between one and two years old. If it's at least two years ago, it goes in Category:Hot words older than two years.
Entries in the latter category should be submitted to RFV, so it should preferably be empty. Editors should check that category regularly to see whether any hot words have expired.
