Template:Rough draft

• This is the template used to put a banner in front of an article to identify it as a rough draft, i.e. an author signals that he currently is working on it. The article will also be part of the Category:Rough draft.

Usage for authors

You can get this banner by inserting the following template in your article (usually at the beginning):
