==When to use==
Use this template to indicate that there are [[WP:CITE#General_reference|general references]] in the article, but that none are currently linked with [[WP:Inline citation|inline citations]]. If you wish to indicate that there should be more linking via inline citations for articles that already have inline citations, use {{tl|more footnotes}} instead. For articles where the problem is not in that there are general references that are unlinked, but rather that there are just simply not enough references, use {{tl|refimprove}}.

An [[WP:INCITE|inline citation]] is '''any''' system that associates a given piece of an article with a specific citation.  The two most popular forms are [[WP:CITE#Footnotes|clickable footnotes]] (<Code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> tags, which produce numbered footnotes like this: <sup>[1]</sup>) and [[WP:PAREN|parenthetical references]] (e.g., <code>(Smith 2010)</code>).  Other articles use manually formatted footnotes or embedded citations.  Do not add this tag to articles that use the "wrong" style of inline citation.

==How to use==
To add this template to an article, copy and paste <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|<nowiki>{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki>}}</code>.

*You can change the word ''article'' in "This article" with <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|section}}</code>, or customize it, e.g. <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|list}}</code> or <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|table}}</code>
*This template will add the article to [[:Category:Articles lacking in-text citations]].

This template has a {{para|date}} parameter. One  way to use this parameter is <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|<nowiki>{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki>}}</code> but it can be done more explicitly as <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}</code> (both result in the same output).  If the parameter is left off a [[WP:BOT|bot]] will add it within a day or so. 

The template also has an optional {{para|BLP}} parameter. If its value is <var>yes</var>, this will indicate that the article is a [[WP:BLP|biography of a living person]], which have higher standards for further reading and external links.

==Examples==
* <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}</code>
{{No footnotes|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
<br/>
* <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|section|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}</code>
{{No footnotes|section|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
<br/>
* <code>{{Tlx|No footnotes|BLP{{=}}yes|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}</code>
{{No footnotes|BLP=yes|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
