The Ambox template is a template used to create article message boxes. These can be placed throughout articles to indicate various pieces of information about the article, such as areas that need work, areas that should receive special attention, or suggestions about the administration of an article. They assist both readers and editors in understanding the scope of an article, along with other information.
