'''&#123;{check talk}}''' may be incorporated into other templates that are intended to be used only on talk pages.  If a template containing it is added to a page in any main namespace, then a warning message will be displayed encouraging people to use that template only on talk pages. The current text of the warning message is:
This template may be incorporated into other templates that are intended to be used only on talk pages.  If a template containing it is added to a page in any subject namespace, then a warning message will be displayed encouraging people to use that template only on talk pages. The current text of the warning message is:
 
 
 
<strong class="error">'''''This [[Help:Template|template]] is misplaced. It belongs on the [[Help:Talk page|talk page]]:'' [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]].'''</strong>
 
 
 
It also adds the pages to [[:Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace]] for easier tracking and rectification.
 
 
 
This template can simply be used like this:
 
 
 
:<code><nowiki>{{check talk}}</nowiki></code>
 
 
 
But if you want to have the ability to selectively turn off this template, for instance when you show your template on a WikiProject page, then use this template like this:
 
 
 
:<code><nowiki>{{check talk| nocat={{{nocat|}}} }}</nowiki></code>
 
  
Then you can feed "<code>nocat = true</code>" to your template when you demonstrate it on a page, and then this template will not show any error message and will not categorize it.

<div class="notice">'''''This [[BattleTechWiki:Template|template]] is misplaced. It belongs on the [[Policy:Talk page|talk page]]:'' [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]].'''</div>

It also adds the pages to the [[:Category:Pages with misplaced talk page templates|Pages with misplaced talk page templates]] tracking category to enable easy rectification.
