Usage

Add {{In-universe}} to an article to tag it as needing this maintenance. {{In-universe|date=April 2018}}

Parameters and categories

The template supports the following optional parameters:

section
if present, the parameter |section will change the opening wording from "This article describes a work ..." to "This section describes a work ..."
subject
the subject as in "This ____-related article". The subject can be formatted as a wikilink to an article or WikiProject.
described_object
if present, described_object replaces "a work or element of fiction".
category
the cleanup category in which you wish to place the article, in the form [[Category:{{category}} articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction]]. For example, specifying "category=anime and manga" will place the article in Category:Anime and manga articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction.
