If not removed this looks like the page is in stasis, not like the tag is due for removal. Change wording?

  • Always have your students add suitable topic categories, as well as page type categories (Template:Tlc, Template:Tlc...)- this ensures their visibility to people browsing the site, and increases their prominence in search engine results. You can find them by browsing the Category Tree.
  • When a class has finished and tags should be removed,[1] teachers/instructors should either ensure that they are removed, or have it done by a bot. (You can leave a request at User talk:ChriswaterguyBot, with a clear definition of which tags or pages are to be processed. It is strongly preferred to request, say, "all 123inprogress tags" or "Category:XYZ" but a list of pages can be done if needed.)
  • A class attribution notice can/should be placed at the bottom, e.g. ... {{attrib 305}}. This can also be done by a bot if desired, while removing the "in progress" tag.

Question about wording:

"This page is a project page in progress by students in Engr305. Please refrain from making edits unless you are a member of the project team, but feel free to make comments using the discussion tab. Check back for the finished version on month date, 200x."

If not removed this looks like the page is in stasis, not like the tag is due for removal. Change wording?
