 | This This table's's factual accuracy may be compromised because of out-of-date information. There may be additional information on the talk page. |
A date parameter can also be used to inform other editors of the time the tag has been in place: {{Out of date|article|date=June 2024}} produces:
| This article's factual accuracy may be compromised because of out-of-date information. There may be additional information on the talk page. (June 2024) |
