As with the original template, this template is ''not'' an indicator of the quality or usefulness of a term, but rather how widely used it is, and this template can be removed from pages if the terms described start being used regularly within the community.
{{doc}}


Pages with this message box are placed in [[:Category:Pages with idiosyncratic terms]].
== Usage ==
This template should be placed at the beginning of a page or section. The terms in question, or a description of the terms in question, should be entered as an unnamed parameter.
Typing the code below, for example:
: <code><nowiki>{{Idiosyncratic terms|Mode names proposed by ''example-person''}}</nowiki></code>
produces the following:
{{Mbox|type=notice|text='''This article or section contains multiple [[:Category:Pages_with_idiosyncratic_terms|idiosyncratic terms]].''' Such terms are used by only a few people and are not regularly used within the community.
Terms: Mode names proposed by ''example-person''}}

Not to be confused with Template:Idiosyncratic

The idiosyncratic terms template adds a message box to inform readers that a page or section has multiple idiosyncratic terms. It is meant as an alternative to having multiple instances of Template:Idiosyncratic within a body of text or in cases where the use of Template:Idiosyncratic is not feasible.
