Template talk:Explanation

This template is the second (if not the first one) that this wiki certainly needs! Thanks, Brooks. I would only give it some other name, more in the spirit {{todo}}, {{stub}} (as in wikipedia; probably doesn't fit here very well) or "To be completed (this article needs to be completed)".

I would sometimes need a TODO template which could be added in a document more than once, but without adding the category five times. Handling this would probably belong to the mediawiki itself, but as it is much more complicated to implement it there: let's just make two identic templates and use the one with category exactly once per page. (I would add some "TODO" remarks simply in the middle of text, perhaps one for every incomplete section on the page.) This goes mostly to the pages that I make and leave "in the air" for some (possibly infinite) amount of time.

What is the advantage of putting the template into the Talk page? I would leave it right in the middle of the text where needed.
