Use this template to mark an article as a stale - as in articles that while not clearly outdated, may have some elements suspected of not being in line with current practices.
Adding this template to an article automatically adds it to the Stale category, so that editors can easily find articles that need work. The see also section lists alternative and complimentary templates, to mark articles that require work of some form.
Use an unnamed parameter to replace the word "article" by something else, if desired (e.g., by section, list, etc.).
