Template:EngvarB/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:EngvarB. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template is used on approximately 101,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | An article tagged with one of the more-specific English-dialect templates should not be changed to {{EngvarB}} if the article is no longer a stub, unless a talk-page discussion concludes with consensus to do so. |
Usage
[edit]This template puts articles in the hidden maintenance category Category:EngvarB (containing articles that use spelling that cannot be identified as either American English or Canadian English[clarification needed]), where they can be worked on by the EngvarB script.
For articles that use, or should use, British English, use the template {{Use British English}}. For other varieties of English, see template options below.
This is a spelling marker indicative of variants only from the viewpoint of the dictionary incorporated into the ENGVAR script. The template and its use do not imply any endorsement of the variant of English used in the tagged article. Please contact the script's author if there is disagreement about words included in the script's dictionary.
This is not a temporary cleanup-request template, and it should remain in an article, unless there is a valid reason to remove it. The most common valid reason is that the article uses a different language variant, so should use a different template (listed in the "See also" section below).
