Template:Update section/doc

__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__

Usage

Place {{Update section|date=October 2026}} on its own line at the top of the section, just below the heading.

Valid parameters are:

• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|date=
• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|cat=
• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|reason=
• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|inaccurate=

Their meanings are exactly the same as for {{update|section}} when that is used with the same parameters.
