Usage

This template generates a box formally asking for expansion of an incomplete page or appendix.

Completeness is a worthy goal. However, the exact information that is lacking is, most certainly, not clear. Therefore, it is always encouraged to provide an explanation wherever {{rfexp}} is used.

Parameters

|1= (required): The language code of the term or appendix needing expansion. See Wiktionary:List of languages. Use und if a single language doesn't apply, e.g. in templates, categories and appendices.
|2=: An optional comment to be displayed in the request message.
|sort=: The sort key for the page; rarely needs to be specified.
|nocat=1: Disable categorization of this page.

This template adds the page to Category:Requests for expansion.

Examples

Alternatives

You may always improve any page or appendix by editing it.
A common type of edit is changing where information is found, namely by moving, splitting or merging a page. It may require a discussion at WT:RFM beforehand.
To propose immediate deletion of a page or appendix that blatantly does not belong to Wiktionary, use {{delete}}.
To discuss the possible deletion of a page or appendix that may not belong to Wiktionary, use {{rfd}} and discuss it at WT:RFD (for pages) or WT:RFDO (for appendices).
