This is a header Ambox used to flag an article about an unreleased game. This template adds a notice at the top of the article, and adds it to a category.

Usage

Place this template at the top of the article, above any {{Infoboxes}} but below any {{Hatnotes}}, as follows:

{{FutureRelease/Documentation| date= | window= }}

  • date — Release date, as specific as possible. This is required and must conform to a format recognized by the PHP strtotime() function.
  • window — If an exact date or at least month is not known, use this parameter to specify a launch window that would not be recognized by strtotime() (such as "Holiday 2014" or "Q2 2015"). (Optional.)

If an exact date is not known, it is acceptable to just provide a year. If possible, a month should also be specified. If a launch window is known, use the first month that is considered to be part of that window. The goal here is to flag articles with insufficiently granular dates as the current date falls within the non-specific period so they can be updated.

To apply this template to a section, use {{FutureRelease/Documentation| section }}. The "date" parameter is still required.

If the page doesn't sort properly in categories, use {{FutureRelease/Documentation| cat= }} to specify a sort key.
