Template documentation

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Expand/doc.

This template is similar to the stub template. This template can be used if an article is long enough to not be considered a stub, but still has room for expansion.

Template parameters[Edit template data]

This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Added since	date	Month and year of which this template was added. Example May 2007	Date	required
Do(n't) categorise?	cat	This template automatically adds pages into a maintenance category by default. To avoid doing this, set this parameter to "no". You usually shouldn't do this. Auto value no	String	optional

Articles with this template are automatically added to Category:Articles to Expand.

If necessary, the phrase “article or section” can be changed with the first parameter. To place the template, use {{expand}}, or {{expand|article}} to specify that the entire article needs expansion, or {{expand|section}} to specify just a section. A bot will add the date to it.
