Update this page

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a container category. Due to its scope, it should only contain subcategories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.

Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This category contains articles which have been proposed for splitting into multiple articles. This is usually done when an article is becoming too long or covers too broad a subject. Wikipedia:Summary style, Wikipedia:Article size, Wikipedia:Splitting, Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia, Wikipedia:Content forking and Wikipedia:Merging are relevant guidelines to consider when deciding if an article is to split, and the appropriate ways of doing a split. Wikipedia:Disambiguation gives advice on creating "disambiguation" pages to distinguish similarly named articles.

Use {{Split}}, {{Split2}}, {{Split-apart}}, {{Split section}} and {{Split sections}} to add articles to this category.

The non-container version is Category:All articles to be split.
