This is a documentation subpage for Template:Lead extra info.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

Place {{Lead extra info|date=July 2024}} at the top of articles where the lead section contains information that is not mentioned elsewhere in the article.

Use this template when a lead fact isn't discussed by the body at all
Meanwhile, if the body does discuss the fact, but fails to verify it, use {{Not verified in body}} instead
Use this template regardless of whether the fact is verified (by the lead) or not. WP:LEADCITE allows for facts to be verified in the lead, but not for facts to only be discussed by the lead
