This page's designation as a policy or guideline is disputed. Please see the relevant discussion on the talk page for further information. |
Note: The use of this tag on policy and guidelines can be itself controversial and is likely to spark an edit war.
- Optionally specify:
- Either, a talk page section:
{{Disputedtag|talk=Discussion}}will link "talk page" to Talk:PageName#Discussion. - Or, a full page-link: (usually to a centralized talk-page)
{{Disputedtag|talkpage=Talk:MyPage#Discussion}}will link "talk page" to Talk:MyPage#Discussion. - If the tag applies strictly to a specific section of a policy or guideline, append the following parameter:
section=yes - A short message about what to do instead -- for editors lacking time to analyze the current discussion:
msg=the default recommendation - Up to 5 Shortcut-links, as described for Template:Shortcut.
- Either, a talk page section:
- When adding this template, do not remove the policy or guideline tag, first because otherwise users cannot see what the dispute is about, and second because a dispute does not automatically revoke the policy or guideline. See WP:POL for details.
- This template is only for ongoing, active disputes that are evidenced in talk page discussion. It is not intended for flagging a projectpage or section as vaguely controversial, nor for indicating a personal dislike of the document. There is no such thing as an indefinitely disputed policy or guideline.
- For disputes about the wording of the policy or guideline (as opposed to the "designation", what this template says), use {{underdiscussion}} instead. Disagreement over the wording of a policy or guideline does not imply it is suddenly not a policy or guideline any more. See WP:POL for details.
- If you disagree with a {{historical}} tag, do not use this template; instead, advertise the page on e.g. WP:RFC and the village pump to get more people involved, so that it becomes active once more.
