{{Lead articles}} is the template the UnNews Editor-in-Chief should edit. It controls the placement of graphic features of selected news stories on the Front Page, by having a variable number of calls to {{Lead article}} (singular), one for each graphic. Do not edit {{Lead article}} itself.

It's convenient to copy a working call to {{Lead article}} (from the word FEATURE to the following word FEATURE), paste it before the first feature, and adjust the fields to fit the new story being featured. If the first feature is both, do a side-by-side by making it right and making the new feature left. If there is already a side-by-side at the top, make the new one both. Also truncate the last feature(s) on the page to keep the number of features constant.

The individual graphics (individual calls to {{Lead article}}) have the following fields:

• arrange — Indicates the article's layout in its row of featured articles:
  • both (or lead) Spans the entire row and causes a horizontal line beneath.
  • left The article on the left side of a pair of side-by-side articles. Code this before the right one.
  • right The article on the right side of a pair of side-by-side articles. Code this after the left one, because it causes a horizontal line beneath.
• image — The image name (omit File:). Our policy is for every graphic to include an image (even if not funny without its caption), but if you leave this blank, the null image Spacer.gif is used
• dept — (optional) A legend centered above the headline. Lowercase letters become small capitals. Typical departments are:
  • BREAKING NEWS or URGENT for stories that either are relevant to big real-world news, or are not
  • EXCLUSIVE for "exclusive interviews," especially when they are exclusive because we're interviewing ourselves
  • PANIC in the SKIES — prized by all journalists, especially if it should have been the Happiest Day of the Year
  • NAVEL-GAZING for UnNews articles that revolve around UnNews
  • FEATURE for articles that are featured on the Uncyclopedia main page
  • ORIGINAL for stories with {{Original}} instead of real sources
  • EDITORIAL for stories tagged as UnNews Editorials
  • COLUMN for stories tagged as UnNews Columns
• title — The page name (omit UnNews:); that is, the headline
• short_title — (optional) If the page name is too long or doesn't look like a headline, provide the desired headline here.
• border — If you type the CSS name of a color here (or use the hexadecimal format #rgb or #rrggbb), a border of that color is drawn around the graphic. Specifying black is appropriate for obituaries.
• summary — The first sentence or two of the story. If you can write a funnier lead by pulling stuff from throughout the story, that would be funnier.

Important notes:

• If you put vertical space between the calls to {{Lead article}}, comment them out, or space is output that throws off the relation between articles.
• If not using border, dept, or short_title, set it to none. Don't remove the lines completely; that makes it harder for the next editor to see the correct form to follow.
