 ==Usage==
 ===When to use===
-Add this template to the top of any page whose article subject is, in your judgment, ''reasonably likely'' to be [[Wikipedia:Notability|non-notable]] (not the sort of subject that Wikipedia ought to have an article about).  When an article is ''certainly, hopelessly'' non-notable, then you should nominate it for [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] or take it to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for deletion]] instead.
+Add this template to the top of any page whose article subject is, in your judgment, ''reasonably likely'' to be [[Wikipedia:Notability|non-notable]] (not the sort of subject that Wikipedia ought to have a separate article about).  When an article is ''certainly, hopelessly'' non-notable, then you should nominate it for [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]] or take it to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|Articles for deletion]] instead.
 [[Wikipedia:Deletion is not clean up|Deletion is not clean up]].  Do not use this tag merely because the page requires significant work.  Notability requires only that appropriate sources have been published about the subject.  It does not require that any editor has [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|already named]] these sources, followed the neutral, encyclopedic style, or otherwise written a good article.
+Do not place this message on an article that has already survived a discussion at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion]] as "keep".  This is not a badge of shame to show your disagreement with the AFD outcome.
 ===How to use===

 This template will add the article to [[:Category:All articles with topics of unclear notability]] and [[:Category:Articles with topics of unclear notability from {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}]], both [[:Category:Hidden categories|hidden categories]].
+===Removing this tag===
+If you find an article that is tagged as having notability concerns, and you are certain that enough in-depth, [[Wikipedia:Independent sources|independent sources]] have been [[Wikipedia:Published|published]] about the subject to overcome any notability issues, then you may remove this tag.  It is highly desirable, but not technically required, for you to add a list of good sources to the article or its talk page, so that other editors will know about the existence of these sources.
+The template must not be re-added. Please do not [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]] over it.  Questions of notability can be resolved through discussion or through [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion]]. If the article exists within the scope of a specific [[WikiProject]] it may be beneficial to invite feedback from the group.

 :* {{para|find2}} to specify keywords for an unquoted search; this corresponds to {{tl|find sources}} param&nbsp;<code>|2</code>. The alias {{para|unquoted}} may be used instead.
 The value "none" may be passed to 'find' ({{para|find|none}}) to suppress display of ''find sources'' links. (Note that specifying {{para|find|none}} and a nonempty value for {{para|find2}} is not a valid combination.)
