"Template:Work in progress" redirects here. For templates to inform about an article being under work, see wikipedia:Template messages/Maintenance.

Purpose

[edit]

The purpose of the "work in progress" tag is to identify reports at Wikipedia:Wikiquette assistance that are active and need attention. Editors are invited to review and participate.

The template is not for general use on article or projectpage talk pages. Every topic on such pages that is not {{Resolved}}, {{Stale}} or {{Stuck}}, remains a "work (or topic, rather) in progress", by definition.

Usage

[edit]

Place the following under the topic heading of the WP:WQA report in question:

{{WQA in progress}}
Work in progress; comments welcome

To make an additional comment regarding the status of the work in progress, and/or to sign so that others know who marked the item as active:

{{WQA in progress|1=There has been improvement, but sporadic edit-warring is still happening. --~~~~}}
Work in progress; comments welcome: There has been improvement, but sporadic edit-warring is still happening. --JohnDoe 00:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

This parameter must be given as |1= or |reason= if any of its content contain the = character.

If you do not want a link to the talk page to be automatically created, you can set 2=nolink or type=nolink. For example:

{{WQA in progress|2=nolink}}
Work in progress; comments welcome

Example

[edit]

==Disruptive editing pattern==

{{WQA in progress|~~~~}}

Despite pleas from several editors, {{User|AUser123}} persists using a highly disruptive method of editing at the [[FooBarBazQuux]] article. —[[User:AnotherUser789|AnotherUser789]] 00:26, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

:After some suggestions, the parties are engaging in dialog, but some reverts and incivility are still happening. —[[User:SomeOtherUser456|SomeOtherUser456]] 10:07, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
