<!--<big>'''Note: this generic template should only be used when a [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup|more specific tag]] is not suitable.'''</big>--><!-- Um - the "more specific tag"s don't exist yet, so I'm just temporarily pulling this off the page.-->
==Placement==
For articles needing major clean-up, place at the top of the main page to alert readers.<br>
For articles needing minor clean-up, place at the top of the talk page to alert editors.
==Usage==
You can optionally use the first parameter to change the word "article" (e.g. <code><nowiki>{{Cleanup|section}}</nowiki></code>).
Add a new item to the talk page explaining the type and extent of clean-up required so editors will know what to address, and when to remove this tag.
==Alternative==
If the problem is correctable with the skills you already possess, consider being [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Be_bold bold] and fixing it yourself, rather than applying this tag and leaving it for someone else to clean up.
==Notes==
*This template will add tagged articles to [[:Category:Articles needing cleanup]]
*This [[Wikipedia:Template|template]] is a [[Wikipedia:Avoid self-references|self-reference]].
*Please do not [[Wikipedia:Subst|subst:]] this template.
*Use this tag when the article needs improvement per [[WP:BETTER]]. Articles that violate policy need more direct action.
