Miscellaneous

Template: Audioneeded - Used to denote that an article needs audio. Template: Cleanup - Used to denote that an article has issues that don't fall into any of the other categories. This typically includes things like the writing not following our style guidelines, page formatting, and other broader issues. Template:Excessivesarcasm - Used to denote that an article is using excessive sarcasm or snark. Like we'd ever use that. Template:Fact - This template is used to mark sections of an article where an incomplete passage or one with information from an obscure source is used without citation. The article will be placed in so other editors can find and add the source. If the information in question is likely or definitely false it should be removed or brought up for discussion. Template:Mainpic - Used a placeholder main article picture. This will place the article into to bring attention to the fact the article is need of a main image. If the character or concept described in the article has no visual representation, Template:X should be used instead. Template:Picsneeded - Denotes that an article is need of pictures other than the main image. Template:Tobedeleted - Used to tag articles as being a proposed candidate for deletion. Editors will then be able to debate the merits of the deletion on the article's talk page. For articles that do not require a discussion and are blindingly surplus to requirements, see Template:Speedydeletion
