 * To use the template in one specific section, and change its wording to refer to the section instead of the page, use section and insert the template at the top of the section:
 * To display the date (in whatever format) of the last significant update to the page, use the second unnamed parameter (or name it updated or number it 2):
 * Note: The parameter name or number must be used if the first numbered/unnamed parameter is not used.
 * To add the date when the tag was added (this is used for cleanup categorization), use:
 * You can also do:
 * To explain that the article now has inaccuracies (not just missing information) due to being outdated, use yes:

produces:

This template will add mainspace articles to Category:Wikipedia articles in need of updating (this category is not populated by pages in other namespaces).

For factual inaccuracies, stronger wording is used and mainspace articles will be added to Category:Articles with obsolete information.
