=== When to use ===
'''This template should be used only on articles that have sources.'''
It may be used with '''{{tl|Refimprove}}''' or other check references templates. This template should not be used with [[{{SITENAME}}:Stub|stubs]].
This template should be used to indicate that there are [[Wikipedia:Citation_overkill|an excessive number of citations]] in an article or section of an article. Such a large number of citations can be aesthetically unappealing and may make the article unreadable or may lead to confusion about what exactly each citation is used in support of.
This template may be removed by anyone who fixes the problem with the excessive number of citations.
=== How to use ===
To use this template, place <code><nowiki>{{Excessive citations|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> on the article page or talk page in a location that may aid in conveying the message of the template. This template may be used within {{tl|Multiple issues}} and placement of this template on the article page is guided by [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup|Template messages/Cleanup]]. The following parameters may be specified for this template:
* '''{{para|date}}''' should preferably be used to categorize the article in a subcategory of [[:Category:Wikipedia references cleanup]]. This helps with addressing aged cleanup messages. (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Excessive citations|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>.)
* '''{{para|details}}''' may be used to provide more details on some of the aspects that should be addressed for the given article. (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Excessive citations|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}|details=In particular, citation titles should be specified<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>)
* '''{{para|}}''' A first unnamed parameter may be used to specify whether the template applies to the entire article or a section of the article (e.g., <code><nowiki>{{Excessive citations|section|</nowiki>date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. If not specified, the first unnamed parameter defaults to "article."
=== Operation ===
This template will categorise tagged articles into [[:Category:Wikipedia references cleanup]] and [[:Category:Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify]].
This template is a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]].
This template should not be [[Help:Substitution|substituted]].
==In-line use==
If inline usage is desired, please use {{t|Excessive citations inline}}, which also has the shortcut {{t|overcite}}. This template produces {{overcite}}
