This template is for use on articles, particularly biographies, that seem to promote the subject.

When to use edit

An article that merely summarizes the subject's career is okay, as long as it's written in a neutral tone and the subject meets the requirements for notability. This tag is meant for biographical articles that promote the subject. In that way, it is much like {{advert}}.

Usage edit

The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste either:

{{Resume-like|date=May 2024}}

or:

{{Resume-like|{{subst:DATE}}}}

at the top of the article. Please do not subst: this template.

Categories edit

This template will add an article to Category:Articles with a promotional tone.

Redirects edit

  1. {{Like-resume}}
  2. {{Likeresume}}
  3. {{Cleanup-resume}}
  4. {{LikeResume}}
  5. {{Like resume}}
