Warning: do not edit this template unless you know exactly what you are doing.
The rewrite tag is used to signal other users that the article in question is substandard so they are encouraged to edit it or even restart it. You have several options to choose for.
Contents |
[edit] Usage 1: no parameter
With no parameters supplied, it will display the default Peanuts (soft) option.
- Example: {{Rewrite}}
[edit] Usage 2: weight (unnamed) parameter
You may use the first parameter to give levels of harshness:
- soft: displays Peanuts, use when you want to signal for minor fixups
- medium: displays Nip & Tuck, use when the article needs a new structure yet the basic idea should be preserved
- hard: displays Steamroller, use when the article needs to be totally restarted
- Example: {{Rewrite|hard}} - strong rewrite (steamroller).
[edit] Usage 3: character parameter
You can use the "character" parameter to choose a thematic option. Character rewrites are considered the same as medium rewrite for weight purposes.
- mrt: if you're feeling nostalgic...
- simon: if you think the article is horrible
- trump: if you want Donald Trump to threaten to fire the writer
- ermey: if you want a drill instructor to give the order to rewrite
- Example: {{Rewrite|character=mrt}} - display the old school Mr. T. rewrite.
