== Usage ==

This template has one optional definable field, which permits the user to be specific in what needs to be cited. For instance, if the entire article needs to be cited, a user would enter:

<pre>
{{unreferenced|article}}
</pre>

Should a user wish to be more specific on which section of the article needs to be cited, then the user would enter in:

<pre>
{{unreferenced|article's section called "Childhood"}}
</pre>

Leaving the template undefined is acceptable, as it will print out the default text listed on this template page.
