Most commonly, the date is written on the same line as the start of the template, with the message on the following lines:

<nowiki>{{news message|date=

==Examples==

News messages could be listed within some kind of table or bigger list, so then it would appear something like this:

 +

 +
| {{news message|date=october 22 2012
 +
      |There has been news.}}

 +
| {{news message|date=october 22 2012
 +
      |There has been news.}}

When multiple news messages are made, it would appear something like this:
 +

      |This message hasn't happened yet at the time of writing.}}
 +

Do note, long messages should '''not break their text onto separate lines''' with space-indentation. It would cause codeblocks to appear within them, as that's how the editor works.
