Template:Disputed section - Wikipedia
Article Images
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:
This section's factual accuracy is disputed. (talk) Please help to ensure that disputed statements are reliably sourced. (Learn how and when to remove this message) |
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=October 2024}}
Output:
This section's factual accuracy is disputed. Relevant discussion may be found on the talk page. Please help to ensure that disputed statements are reliably sourced. (October 2024) (Learn how and when to remove this message) |
