Template:Split

It has been suggested that this page should be split into multiple pages. (discuss) (July 2024)

This template uses Lua: Module:Unsubst (sandbox)

This template will add tagged articles to Category:Articles to be split.

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 Wikipedia than to create a new article.

Parameters

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 |date=July 2024. This will be added automatically at some point by a bot if you omit it.

unnamed parameters for article titles

To suggest an article name (or more than one), simply pipe them into the template (or number them |1=, |2=, etc.). For example, {{split|Article 1|date=July 2024}} produces:

It has been suggested that this page should be split into a new page titled Article 1. (discuss) (July 2024)

Multiple: {{Split|Article 1|Article 2|Article 3|date=July 2024}} produces:

It has been suggested that this page should be split into pages titled Article 1, Article 2 and Article 3. (discuss) (July 2024)

Up to 20 new names can be suggested.

discuss

To specify where the discussion about this split is taking place, use |discuss=, as in {{split|Article 1|date=July 2024|discuss=Talk:Article name#Talk page section}}, which produces:

It has been suggested that this page should be split into a new page titled Article 1. (discuss) (July 2024)

section

To replace the word "article" (or "page", outside of mainspace), use |section=y to display "section", or use something more specific, as in {{split|Article 1|date=July 2024|section=list}}, which produces:
