Removal message
Recently someone (Fadyblok240, see their edits). Added a message to remove the template if the page wasn't edited some time ago. I reverted that because I would like to discuss it first. I to that because this template indicates when a page needs improving on many aspects, covering update it, rewrite it, espand it, and many other actions, and adding that make the template unnecesary for pages that really need improving. There are templates like Update that sometimes can be used instead of this one, but this is more general, and as I said it covers many aspects of improving an article. Also you could use In use instead of this one to specify that the page is being updated on that moment. Thejoaqui777 (talk) 04:53, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I wanted to add the removal message because the template is transcluded on pages that have not received an edit in months, if not years, cluttering with inactive articles. There are other templates such as stub, empty section, expand section, and missing information that indicate that an article or section needs expansion.

 * I understand, but we have that category to check which article we can update first. They can't be all updated by only one or two people, that's why they stay like that. However, what we can do is to update gradually thing by thing. That's the only way to make everythimg updated, at least for a while. Thejoaqui777 (talk) 13:42, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
