I've got a better idea

The term "improve the article" on the {{incomplete}} template doesn't make any sense to me. We can replace that term with "fill in the missing information on the article" so that it will read more specific.

This is what the template currently reads:

{{Messagebox|Incomplete.png|link=Category:Incomplete|'''This {{{1|article or section}}} is incomplete.'''
<br />Please improve the article, or discuss the issue on the [[{{TALKSPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|talk page]].<br>{{#if:{{{3|}}}|'''What is missing is:''' {{{3|}}}}}|{{{2|center}}}}}<includeonly>[[Category:Incomplete]]</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Messageboxes|{{PAGENAME}}]][[Category:Templates]][[sv:Mall:Incomplete]]</noinclude>
Incomplete.png This article or section is incomplete.


Please improve the article, or discuss the issue on the talk page.

If the proposal gets approved, this is what the template will read:

{{Messagebox|Incomplete.png|link=Category:Incomplete|'''This {{{1|article or section}}} is incomplete.'''
<br />Please fill in the missing information on the article, or discuss the issue on the [[{{TALKSPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|talk page]].{{#if:{{{3|}}}|<br>'''What is missing is:''' {{{3|}}}}}|{{{2|center}}}}}<includeonly>[[Category:Incomplete]]</includeonly><noinclude>[[Category:Messageboxes|{{PAGENAME}}]][[Category:Templates]][[sv:Mall:Incomplete]]</noinclude>
Incomplete.png This article or section is incomplete.


Please fill in the missing information on the article, or discuss the issue on the talk page.
