Usage

This cleanup template can be used to tag pages that use HTML markup that can be replaced with wiki markup.
{{Cleanup HTML}} puts articles into Category:Articles with HTML markup and Category:Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify
An unnamed parameter will replace the word "article" in the alert box message — {{Cleanup HTML|section}} changes the message to start "This section uses HTML markup".
When adding to a page, it is helpful to other editors to specify which tags are unwanted, like this: {{cleanup HTML|tags=table, tr, td}} — These tags will be displayed in the alert box.
For a list of which tags are unwanted and instructions on how to perform cleanup, see Category:Articles with HTML markup.
If a date parameter is provided such as {{Cleanup HTML|date=December 2024}} then the page is put into a by-month category instead. If the date is left out, a bot will add it later.
This template is a self reference.
