Tip of the day

Article banner templates

New articles are usually created and left in the Draft namespace (or a user's subpage) until they are ready for primetime.

{{Under construction}} and {{In use}} templates are intended for subsequent article tune-ups, and are posted at the article page top.
{{In use}} template is for articles actively undergoing a major edit for a short time to list them in Category:Pages actively undergoing a major edit.
{{Under construction}} is for articles actively undergoing construction to list them in Category:Pages actively undergoing construction.

As the article is developed, {{stub}} templates along with their switches (posted at article bottom) are used for articles still needing additional content.
