Template:Self-contradictory/doc

This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Self-contradictory articles.


 * This template is a self-reference.
 * This template is not useful for substitution.

Please start a section on the article's talk page to discuss and specify the specific section that contradicts itself. The third optional parameter is the name of a specific section on the specified talk page.
 * After posting this template:

It is possible to specify the subject about which the article or section is contradictory with the optional parameter.


 * Example of use:

This renders as:

Adding the optional text  or   changes the vague default wording to be more specific:
 * Default: "This article or section appears to contradict ..." followed by "itself" or a link to an article named with article
 * article or article – "This article appears to contradict ..." followed by "itself" or a link to an article named with article
 * section or section – "This section appears to contradict ..." followed by "itself" or a link to an article named with article
 * othersection or othersection – "This section appears to contradict another section of this article" (this parameter is ignored if mutually exclusive parameter article has a value; the default output will result).


 * More complex examples of use:

Notes:
 * The date-substitution template may be used to automatically generate the date, e.g., . See Help:Substitution for more information.
 * The date parameter need not be added by the editor: if not entered, a bot will soon add it. The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates, ISO date order, or other formatting; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13" or "7 January 2013" or "2013-01". Any deviation from this rule will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.
