If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, change scope, or nominate it for deletion or deprecation, please notify the Article Alerts project at Wik.ipedia.Pro talk:Article alerts as a courtesy, as this page is used by the AAlertBot bot to detect and report pages. Thank you! |
This template uses Lua: |
This template will add tagged articles to Category:Articles to be split.
Usage
When two or more distinct topics which share the same or similar title are being written about on the same page, a content split may be considered. Consideration must be given both to notability and to potential neutrality issues before proposing a split. If one or more of the topics is not notable it may be more appropriate to simply remove the material from Wik.ipedia.Pro than to create a new article.

If no parameters are used in the template (i.e., {{Split}}
), it will display as above.
- date
- To add the month and year the template was added to the article, add

|discuss=

|section=y
to display "section", or use something more specific, as in{{split|Article 1|date=September 2024|section=list}}
