Template:Disputed section
This template identifies a Wikipedia article where one or more sections has content whose accuracy or factual nature is in dispute.
- This template is a self-reference.
- Please do not subst: this template.
Usage
First add a new section to the article's talk page outlining your concerns, then add {Disputed section}
to the top of the disputed section in the main article. To include a link from the "disputed section" header to the proper section of the talk page, use {Disputed section|talk page section name}
. Articles using this template as shown above are placed into Category:Accuracy disputes.
To make the message box small and floated to the left, set the "small" parameter to "left". Note that in this case, a shorter message will be displayed that doesn't include a link to the talk page. Example:
Template:
{Disputed section|small=left}
Output:
Date
This template can take an optional date parameter in the format {Disputed section|date = <month> <year>}
or {Disputed section|talk page section name|date = <month> <year>}
. If the date is not included it will probably be added later by a WP:BOT. Articles using this template with a date are added to Category:Accuracy disputes from <month> <year>.
Template:
{Disputed section|date=May 2024}
Output:
Category:
Redirects
