An editor has expressed a concern that the subject of the article does not satisfy the notability guideline or one of the following guidelines for inclusion on Wikipedia: Biographies, Books, Companies, Fiction, Music, Neologisms, Numbers, Web content, or several proposals for new guidelines.

If you are familiar with the subject matter, please expand the article to establish its notability, citing reliable sources. If notability cannot be established, the article is more likely to be considered for deletion, as per Wikipedia:Guide to deletion. (See also Wikipedia:Notability)

This template will categorise tagged articles into Category:Articles with topics of unclear notability. This template is a self-reference. This template is not useful for Wikipedia:Subst.

Providing no arguments to the template will result in a generic but rather verbose message with a comprehensive list of notability guidelines. An optional argument renders the message more specific. Options include:

  • Books
  • Companies
  • Fiction
  • Music
  • Neologisms
  • Numbers
  • Web
  • Notability. In this case, only the main notability guideline article is referenced.
  • Proposed. In this case a second argument is required to provide a link to the proposed guideline.
For example, {{notability|Proposed|[[Wikipedia:Notability (software)]]}}.
  • Other. For forward compatibility with new guidelines that have not yet been given a syntactic shortcut in this template. A second argument is required as a link to the guideline.
For example, were "Music" not already supported, one could use: {{notability|Other|[[Wikipedia:Notability (music)|Music]]}}.
