This works much like Template:ArticleHistory, but is designed for the Milestones of Featured Topics instead of Featured Articles. As such, there are a few differences in how the template should be used in practice.
This template should only be used by genuine featured topics or former featured topics, as otherwise it messes up the categories. This template should not be updated to include a candidacy until after the candidacy has concluded.
![]() | This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages. You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here. |
