This is a template for nominating new candidates for the ''In the News'' section at [[WP:ITNC]]. The template has two main parameters, article and blurb. If they are missing it states no article specified and no blurb specified. The article automatically links to the page. Empty parameters are optional. The full syntax includes a level four heading - 'Nomination header' should be changed to include the name of the article being nominated and if the nomination is for the recent deaths (RD) or ongoing sections.

Example usage: '''{{tlx|ITN candidate|<nowiki>article=Example|blurb=Reason why [[Example]] is in the news</nowiki>}}'''
===Parameters===
*article2
*image: a relevant free-use, not [[WP:NFC|fair-use]], image suitable for the main page.
*caption: caption for image
*blurb: a brief description of why the article is in the news. Does not show with recent deaths/ongoing, use altblurb instead.
*recent deaths: to propose items for recent deaths.
*ongoing: to propose/remove items for ongoing.
*altblurb(#)
*sources
*updated
*nominator

▲{{ITN candidate/syntax}}
▲*altblurb(#), possible alternative wording of the blurb. Can also be filled with the alternatively proposed blurb, when unsure whether the item should be posted under Recent deaths/Ongoing, or as a full blurb. Specifying this is entirely optional, and nominations without altblurb are procedurally more straightforward.
▲*article2, which allows for two related articles in the news to be nominated in the same blurb. Use rarely.
▲*sources, which are links to relevant news sources showing why the nominated article is in the news
▲*updated, which can be yes or no, and changes the 'Article' text to 'Updated article', or 'Article to update' respectively.
▲*updated2, per above but only if the article2 parameter is used.
▲*nominator, which should be filled in with the username of the person nominating the candidate article and story.
▲*updater, which should be filled in if and/or when the article to be posted is updated, with the username of the person who has contributed the most to updates.
▲**If both nominator and updater are the same person, both fields must still be filled in, although the template will return one line with the user credited as both nominator and updater.
▲*ITNR, which can be yes or no, if yes a comment is added about the item being a recurring item and so that its importance has already been considered.
▲*sign, which is the nominator's signature (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
===Reduced syntax for Recent Deaths===
<includeonly>▼
Recent Death nominations do not require all the elements of the full syntax, and thus this smaller subset can be used instead. (Additional candidate template fields can be added as necessary)
