{{Parent monthly clean-up category|Orphan}}

*'''Please help an [[WP:Orphan|orphan article]] by [[Help:Link|adding links]] to it in related articles and lists. Once it has an incoming link from at least one article or list, the orphan tag can be removed (disambiguation pages, redirects and non-mainspace (i.e drafts, talk pages, user pages, etc.) articles do not count). Three or more incoming links are ideal. The [http://edwardbetts.com/find_link/2EARfm Find link tool] may be of help, but not in all cases.'''

Articles in this category should have no incoming links from other articles or lists. They are placed in this category by the {{tlx|Orphan}} template, with the optional parameter of the date, e.g. <code><nowiki>{{Orphan|date=</nowiki>{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>.  Using the '''att=''' parameter places the article instead in [[:Category:Attempted de-orphan]], which is included in this category as a sub-category.

{{Notice|{{For|articles editors have attempted to de-orphan|:Category:Attempted de-orphan}}}}

This category is for orphaned articles only. For orphaned images, please see:
*[[:Category:Orphaned non-free use Wikipedia files]]
