=== Optional parameters ===

* This template takes the optional parameter {{para|for}} (a.k.a. {{para|reason}}) which can be used to explainchange whatthe issueshover need to be addressedtext, ''e.g.'' {{para|for|consistentThe spellingtext preceding this tag needs copy editing for tone.}}. The default value is "The text preceding this tag may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling.".

* This template takes the optional parameter {{para|date}}, with the format {{para|date|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}. An expedient way to enter it is <code><nowiki>|subst:{{DATE}}</nowiki></code> instead of using {{para|date}} directly.

* This template will auto-categorise tagged articles into [[:Category:Wikipedia articles needing copy edit]], or a dated subcategory thereof. However, if the optional parameter and value '''{{para|categories|no}}''' is set, the template will not categorise the page.
