Location

change
If using a large, graphical template produces odd layout problems, like the excessive white space shown on the right of this screenshot, then switch to a different sister template.

☒N Do not place this template in the main body of the article.

☒N Do not place this template in a section containing columns.

This template is normally placed at the top of the WP:Other websites section. Please do not create an otherwise-empty ==Other websites== section for this template. Instead, consider using {{Wikinews-inline}}, or placing this template at the top of the last section on the page (usually a citation-related section). See Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects for further recommendations about the best choice of template for various situations.

On disambiguation pages, this template should be listed above other text, but below any cleanup templates, images, infoboxes or navboxes.
