=== Usage ===
This template automatically adds articles to [[:Category:Articles in need of internal merging]] or [[:Category:Duplicate articles]].

Basic usage: {{Tlx|Duplication|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

=== Parameters ===
All parameters are optional.
*<kbd>section</kbd> — changes wording to say "This '''section''' duplicates...". Place the template at the top of the section.
*:Example: {{Tlx|Duplication|section{{=}}yes}}
*<kbd>dupe</kbd> — adds a link referring to the section or article being duplicated, and adds the article to [[:Category:Duplicate articles]] instead of [[:Category:Articles in need of internal merging]].
*:Examples: {{Tlx|Duplication|dupe{{=}}#Section name}} {{Tlx|Duplication|dupe{{=}}Article name}}
*<kbd>dupe2</kbd> — same as <kbd>dupe</kbd>, just allows for an additional section/article to be linked.
*:Example: {{Tlx|Duplication|dupe{{=}}Article name|dupe2{{=}}#Section name}}
