<big>'''Contentious material that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous or harmful.'''</big>

'''Alternatives:'''
* In [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|BLP]] articles that have no sources at all, the '''{{tls|prod blp}}''' template should be used. Otherwise, use '''{{Tl|BLP unsourced}}'''.
* In [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|non-BLP]] articles that require additional sources, the '''{{Tl|More citations needed}}''' template should be used instead.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Be bold|Be bold!]]''' Consider searching for [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|references]] and adding them to the article, instead of this template.
* Consider not adding this template to extremely short articles.

== Usage ==
This template is intended to be placed at the top of [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|articles about living persons]] that need additional references, and are therefore in need of immediate attention. If the article is not about a living or recently deceased subject, you may wish to use {{Tl|More citations needed}} instead.

Please add a date parameter. Adding a date parameter sorts the article into subcategories of [[:Category:BLP articles lacking sources]] and out of the parent category, allowing the oldest problems to be identified and dealt with first.

Finally, if the article has a defaultsort, this is used for these categories as well. Otherwise, it is sorted on the first word (usually the first name).

==Parameters==
* <code>date = {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}</code> - required parameter, will be added by bot
* <code>reason = <var>text</var></code> - optional parameter which appends advisory text

The following parameter is obsolete: {{para|{{red|suffix}}}} (simply use the first unnamed parameter).

=== Examples ===
:Paste-ready example: {{Tlc|BLP sources|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
:Example with reason: {{Tlc|BLP sources|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}} |reason{{=}} }}

This template can be used with a "section" parameter to tag specific sections:
{{Tlc|BLP sources|section|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

== Redirects ==
The following templates redirect here:
{{div col|colwidth=22em}}
* {{Tlf|BLP+}}
* {{Tlf|BLP Improvereferences}}
* {{Tlf|BLP improvereferences}}
* {{Tlf|blp improvereferences}}
* {{Tlf|BLPImprovereferences}}
* {{Tlf|BLPimprovereferences}}
* {{Tlf|blpimprovereferences}}
* {{Tlf|BLPmoreref}}
* {{Tlf|BLP Refimprove}}
* {{Tlf|BLP refimprove}}
* {{Tlf|blp refimprove}}
* {{Tlf|BLPRefimprove}}
* {{Tlf|BLPrefimprove}}
* {{Tlf|blprefimprove}}
* {{Tlf|BLP Sources}}
* {{Tlf|blp sources}}
* {{Tlf|BLPSources}}

* {{Tlf|BLP more sources}}
* {{Tlf|refimprove-BLP}}
* {{Tlf|BLP refimprove}}
* {{Tlf|BLP citations needed}}
{{div col end}}

==Tracking categories==
The template populates:
* {{clc|Pages using BLP sources with unknown parameters}} – when unrecognized parameters are invoked on the transcluding page.

== TemplateData ==
