From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove references per [[MOS:DABNOLINK ]] - References should not appear on disambiguation pages. Dab pages are not articles; instead, incorporate the references into the target articles
[[WP:UGC ]] - Content from websites whose content is largely user-generated is generally unacceptable
Remove names of non-notable family members per [[WP:BLPNAME ]] (esp. Note (e))
top level headers use two ==, per [[WP:SECT ]]: "... do not use only one equals sign on a side..."
Remove unneeded references: the existence of a book doesn't need an additional reference, the book itself as a primary reference suffices
Remove duplicate ISBNs - no need for both ISBN-10 & ISBN-13
Remove redundant URL parameter that matches an existing identifier

Example of embedding infoboxes
{{ Infobox person
| name = Paul McCartney
...
| module =
{{ Infobox musical artist
| embed = yes
| instrument = piano
...
}} <!-- end of Infobox musical artist -->
...
}} <!-- end of Infobox person -->

{ { cn | date=November 2026} }
{ { font color } } & { { highlight } }
{ { font color | red| Here is some text } } → Here is some text
{ { font color | red| { { tag | tagname } } } } fails because { { tag } } sets a font color (black) that overrides { { font color } }
{ { highlight | Here is some text | lightblue} } → Here is some text
{ { font color | red| lightblue| Here is some text } } → Here is some text
'''<code>{{font color|red|{{((}}{{))}}}}</code>''' → {{}}
{ { para } } & { { param value } }
{ { param value | parameter_name } } → parameter_name
{ { para | parameter_name } } → | parameter_name =

{ { tag } }
{ { tag | tagname} } → < tagname> ...< / tagname>

{ { tag | tagname| close} } → < / tagname>
{ { tag | tagname| single} } → < tagname / >
