Template:In popular culture/doc

This template is used to indicate that an article with "In popular culture" lists that may contain a long list of minor or unimportant references. See TechInfoDepot:Trivia sections and TechInfoDepot:Handling trivia for further guidance. It may be placed at the top of a section, or at the top of the article if the issue affects the whole article.

Usage
This template should not be substituted.

Place at the top of an article containing too many non-notable "in popular culture" entries.

If the issue pertains only to a particular section, add to the top of it. The word "section" can also be changed to other words as necessary, such as "list" or "template."

A talk parameter is allowed; setting this to the name of the subsection on the talk page will cause a link to appear to it.

The small parameter can be used. Setting this to "left" will cause the template to reduce in size and appear on the left of the page.

This template also includes support for using the date parameter. Adding this parameter sorts the article into subcategories of Category:Articles with trivia sections and out of the parent category, allowing the oldest problems to be identified and dealt with first. A bot will add this parameter if it is omitted. Be careful not to abbreviate the date, because then it will automatically add a redlinked category instead of the correct category.

This template sorts articles into Category:Articles with trivia sections from August 2024, a hidden category.
