Wiki143:Template index/Splitting

For use on main page

Content split

When two or more topics are being dealt with on the same page which share the same or similar title and a disambiguation page seems appropriate use Template:Tl:

• Place the template at the top of the page for which the split is proposed.
• By default, the discussion is directed to the talk page of the page on which this tag is placed. Optionally, |discuss= can be added to direct the discussion to another page. Example: Template:Tlx, produces:

• Optionally, you can include suggested titles for between 2 and 20 new pages as parameters. Example: Template:Tlx, produces:

• Add the date parameter |date=May 2026 to place articles in Category:Articles to be split from May 2026

Size split

When an article is too long, and it is uncertain how the article should be split, use Template:Tl:

• When there is a suggested new article name for some content use Template:Tl with |Template:Var=:

• When an article series is proposed, use Template:Tl with multiple titles:

When a disambiguation page needs splitting use Template:Tl:

For sections, use:

• Template:Tl

• Template:Tl - can specify multiple destination articles

• Template:Tl - for migrating portions of a section

• Template:Tl - for a less disruptive tag:

For use on talk page

• Template:Tl (for both source & destination) - Template:Tlx

• Template:Tl (supporting multiple splits from the same page) - Template:Tlx Template:Split article

During and after splitting

• Template:Tl - Template:Tlx

• Template:Tl - Template:Tlx
