I'm sorry if this is a question easily answered elsewhere; I've been searching, but I could not find a definitive answer. In regards to pages needing cleanup, when is it safe to remove the cleanup template? Is there a particular criteria that needs to be met per page, and would it potentially be useful to post on a page's talk section what about the article requires being cleaned?

  • There's no real answer to this question. It's mostly an opinion-based thing. Generally speaking, an article should have no formatting, layout, or sourcing issues, or at least no major ones. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 19:50, June 2, 2019 (UTC)
    • As to your final question, Akina, specific issues that should be addressed in an article can always be specified by passing a list of them as a parameter into {{Cleanup}}. Like this, {{Cleanup|This thing needs to be fixed, and this, and this. Also this.}} Hope this helps. Imperators II(Talk) 20:32, June 2, 2019 (UTC)
      • Thank you both so very much for your help! I asked because I thought that I would try to tidy up the Ambidexterity article, which has proved difficult as it is haha. Akina Speranza (talk) 03:20, June 3, 2019 (UTC)
