[edit] Template documentation

Usage

This template can take up to three flags at once, highlighting specific things that need to be done to make an article publishable.

Currently available flags are:

{{Tasks|src|Find sources other than [[w:BBC|]]}}

Idea by User:949billwright. Many source sites carry identical unexpurgated text from the AP newswire. One or two in an article may be okay though.

Development

To make new flags/tasks, or to modify the ones that this template uses, see {{Tasks/TaskParse}}. That's where all the heavy lifting is done. Other subtemplates are used to coordinate the overall logic of the template; especially, to format the entire notice differently when flag re-review is included. (The top-level subtemplates are {{tasks/comments found}}, {{tasks/see comments}}, and {{tasks/standalone}}.)
