Invitation banner
For spreading the use of the inline calls for history/chronology sources, this invitation banner can be left as a message at the talk_page of those Wikipedians who seem to care for the sourcing of dates, timelines and chronologies when editing or anyone who could make good use of these inline calls. Just place Template:Tl as a message, followed by your signature. It will display
Hello. You may have seen that some Wikipedia articles lack sources to given dates, timelines and chronologies.
If you feel that you could like to help in making all articles more reliable and well sourced in this regard, we would like to encourage you to use, as part of your daily editing and when Template:Tl is not enough for requesting clearly and specifically a citation or source for dates, timeline or chronology, the following inline tag:
- Template:Tl displays {chronology source needed} for requesting timelines, dates and chronology sources. Click here for more information
At WP Timeline Tracer, we thank you for using these tools and for helping to make Wikipedia articles more accurate and reliable.
