Usage
This template is intended to mark close paraphrasing within articles that does not or may not rise to the level of copyright infringement. If you believe the paraphrasing is close enough that it may infringe copyright, please follow the procedures at {{copyvio}} instead.
{{close paraphrasing|article|source=http://example.com|free=yes/no|talk=Section name|date=December 2024}}
All parameters are optional. article
can be replaced with a more specific description of the problematic part, such as section
or table
. |source=
can be used to indicate which source is being too closely paraphrased; it can contain links. |free=yes
can be used to remove the wording "non-free copyrighted" from the template, if you want to use it to mark an article that may be plagiarized from a public domain resource. |talk=
can be used to specify the name of a section to link to on the talk page.
This template also includes support for using the |date=
parameter. Adding this parameter sorts the article into a dated subcategory of Category:Articles with close paraphrasing and out of the parent category, allowing the oldest problems to be identified and dealt with first. A bot will add this parameter if it is omitted.
This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Wikipedia cleanup and Category:Articles with close paraphrasing. See {{cleanup}} for more details.
This template is a self-reference.
This template should not be used with {{Subst}}.
