This template is used to mark low-quality pages on the wiki for improvement and cleanup, not necessarily due to incorrect information, but instead because the current information is presented on a way that can be confusing for the reader or because it doesn't follow the Style guide. It is preferred to fix the problem yourself or press first the Discuss button present on the template to go into the talk page and propose how the page need to be cleaned up. This template adds articles to the Category:Cleanup
