<!-- ABOUT THIS TEMPLATE
−
This is a very basic template to use for articles about events in Police history. You can add header sections and images as you feel necessary in order to properly illustrate the event. For actual performances, please use [[Template:Performance]] instead. Event articles should be named in the YYYY-MM-DD format to be properly registered in the timeline calendars.
+
This is a very basic template to use for articles about specific performance dates. Please make sure to fill in all CAPITALIZED TEXT that you can with the appropriate info (ex: replace BAND NAME with [[The Police]], [[Oysterhead]], etc); if you don't know then please mark it '''unknown''' so that someone else can fill it in later, do not delete the specific table section.
 +
 
 +
The article should be named following our standard calendar format. (Ex: "YYYY-MM-DD") If more than one event has taken place on that date, name the article "YYYY-MM-DD (Artist/band name performance)" and make sure there is a disambiguation page in place at the appropriate "YYYY-MM-DD" location.

Also, please replace

<noinclude>[[Category:Article templates]]</noinclude>

at the bottom of the template with the appropriate category, for instance [[:Category:2008]] for a performance which took place in 2008.
