Template documentationUsage
- To include a shortcut, pass a parameter:
{{historical|WP:SHORT}}. - To provide a last updated date, use the named parameter "last", i.e.
{{historical|last=1 January 2000}} - To provide a briefer form of the text, use
{{historical|brief=yes}} - For a former policy, use
{{historical|type=policy}} - For a former guideline, use
{{historical|type=guideline}} - For a page closed down by explicit community consensus, use
{{historical|type=woundup}} - To provide an explanatory comment, use
{{historical|comment=explanatory text here}} - Pages using this template will be placed into Category:Inactive project pages unless the parameter category=no is given:
{{Historical}}(user and user talk pages are not categorized). - For related Wikipedia header templates, see Template messages/Wikipedia namespace.
- Please note that this template is not appropriate for portals, which exist for the purpose of informing readers on a given topic and, as such, can never truly be "inactive".
- It is also not appropriate for inactive WikiProjects which are dealt with according to the WikiProject Council/Guide; these should be tagged with {{WikiProject status|Defunct}} or {{WikiProject status|Inactive}}.
Adding shortcuts
- In addition, a shortcut can be added to this template by using the following syntax:
{{Historical|SHORTCUT}}
- Up to 5 shortcuts can be added to this template in this fashion:
{{Historical|SHORTCUT1|SHORTCUT2|SHORTCUT3|SHORTCUT4|SHORTCUT5}}

- {{WikiProject status}}
- {{failed}} — for proposals that were never adopted
