This template is used to mark pages who will be removed. There might be various reasons, but one thing is certain: its contents are to be seen as 'not valuable'. It will display a banner on the page where it is included, and adds the category 'removal' to it.

This category is reserved for pages which are obsolete and therefore marked or removal.

Steps to do to mark a page obsolete:

  1. Make sure the page has no current or historical value whatsoever
  2. If it is somewhat valuable, but outdated, mark it Outdated
  3. Add the following text so that the template is visible and the page automatically added to this category:
    {{Marked for removal}}
    or
    {{Marked for removal|extra information on the reason why it will be removed or what needs to be done}}
