{{current}}?Creation
DateArticle uses as of
02 Feb 2014Comments / Issues {{Current}} not applicable March 14, 2004 zero Created for high-edit occasions. Text of template diverges from rationale for creation and guide to use, directed for editors. Visible to readers. Perhaps a modified version of {{editnotice}} preferable. Reduplicates warnings of the Wikipedia:General disclaimer, contrary to the guideline Wikipedia:No disclaimers in articles {{Current related}} yes June 6, 2006 zero {{Seealso}} adequately indicates a link to an active topic. {{Current person}} yes June 22, 2006 zero {{Seealso}} adequately indicates a link to an active topic. {{Current disaster}} yes January 30, 2008 zero Specifically created for natural disasters. Fairly often used for man-made events. {{Current sport}} yes December 9, 2005 zero Reduplicates warnings of the Wikipedia:General disclaimer, contrary to the guideline Wikipedia:No disclaimers in articles. {{Current sport-related}} yes January 27, 2007 zero Seealso}} adequately indicates a link to a related topic. {{Current sports transaction}} yes December 8, 2011 one There are many thousands of sports player signings, trades and other transactions a year. Given the complicated circumstances and long-drawn out nature of completing many transaction, it is best to fully describe the activity in the article text. {{Current tornado outbreak}} yes March 25, 2011 zero Reduplicates warnings of the Wikipedia:General disclaimer, contrary to the guideline Wikipedia:No disclaimers in articles. {{Current tropical cyclone}} yes September 21, 2005 zero Reduplicates warnings of the Wikipedia:General disclaimer, contrary to the guideline Wikipedia:No disclaimers in articles {{Recent death}} yes January 3, 2007 zero For occasions in which people die with unreported or unexplained circumstances. Needlessly used for well-reported, well explained deaths. {{Recent death presumed}} yes February 16, 2008 zero Rarely used. Better to state the circumstances in the text of the article. If {{recent death}} continues to survive, it should become a parameter to that template. {{Current spaceflight}} yes September 14, 2006 zero Signficantly modified from {{current}}. Indicates satellites presently in operations or orbit. Given that hundreds of significant objects are in orbit, best to indicate project status in the article text. {{Launching}} to review September 22, 2006 23 articles, but visible on __. Modified from {{current}}. Can reside on an article without visibility, and be made visible with a parameter change. Originally created to note launches scheduled within 24 hours. Presently appears on articles about particular kinds of rockets, or satellite programs. {{Drug-emerging}} uncertain October 24, 2013 five Highlights that the drug in question is not properly supported by references, which makes the template functionally a variety of {{crystal}}. {{Recently revised}} uncertain January 2, 2006 eight Needless and superfluous. A comment on the talk page, as well as edit summary for the edit history are sufficient. {{in use}} created before current December 18, 2003 seven Perhaps desirable to convert to an {{editnotice}}. It has survived four deletion nominations.
