This is a documentation subpage for Template:Trivia.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage[change source]

To help with the categorization of articles, you may use the optional date parameter, e.g. {{trivia|date=July 2024}}. Articles tagged with this template without the parameter will eventually be given the parameter by a bot.

The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{trivia|date=July 2024}}

Editors should not use this template to tag sections they consider trivial. In accordance with Wikipedia:Trivia sections, this template should only be placed at the top of sections that contain indiscriminate and unselective lists.

This template sorts articles into Category:Articles with trivia sections.

Related templates[change source]

{{Prose}} – a similar box that suggests converting the section into prose, rather than integrating the items into the prose of other sections.

More information[change source]

Wikipedia:"In popular culture" content – an essay on "popular culture" articles and sections.
