Template:Investigate/doc

Use this template to tag an article or section that is not fully understood and needs further investigation. It automatically adds the article to Category:Investigate.

Usage

The first parameter is the reason or topic that needs to be investigated, e.g. {{Investigate|Reason goes here}}.

Use nocat=y to prevent adding the page to the to-do category, i.e. {{Investigate|Reason|nocat=y}}

Use sect= to change "article or section" to anything else.

Examples

{{Investigate|How does this function actually work?}}

{{Investigate|This class might actually be used for something else.}}
