Template:rfexp/documentation

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

• {{rfexp|en|more examples of irregular verbs}}
• {{rfexp|fr|etymologies}}
• {{rfexp|sv|how to write large numbers}}
• {{rfexp|und|more translations}}
• {{rfexp|la|comparison between Latin and Greek}}

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).
