  • These tags should only be applied to articles where global perspectives are reasonably believed to exist.

Usage

{{ globalize
| article or section
| country or region
| 2name
| country or region
| 3name
| country or region
| 4name
| nocat
}}

The default words article or section are replaceable so you can specify whether the whole article or just a section doesn't represent a worldwide view: {{Globalize|article}} or {{Globalize|section}}.

Up to three areas covered can also be selected, {{Globalize|article or section|area 1|area 2|area 3}}. For each region, the template will automatically add the page to an appropriate cleanup category, named category:{{{country}}}-specific. If the name of the country differs from the category (for instance, the United Kingdom, but UK-specific) then you can use the 2name, 3name and 4name attributes to modify the displayed name. This template will also categorize tagged articles into Category:Articles with limited geographic scope. To disable all auto-categorisation, add nocats=yes.
