Template:Disputed inline
[disputed ]
Usage[edit]
{{Disputed inline|Talk page section|date=June 2016}}
To identify the exact statement being disputed, use the |text=
parameter (it does not display anything, and is only visible in the wikicode):
{{Disputed inline|text=disputed content|Talk page section|date=June 2016}}
To link to a centralized discussion on some other page, use the |talk=
parameter to give the location:
{{Disputed inline|talk=Talk:Topic#Talk page section|date=June 2016}}
The parameter |for=
can be used to give a short reason that displays in the tag (do not use this for editorializing or any other editor may refactor such a comment out); the comment added here will be preceded by "for:" and the entire comment put in a round-bracketed parenthetical:
{{Disputed inline|Talk page section|for=conflict with sources cited above|date=June 2016}}
As with most templates, the parameter |reason=
can be used to give a somewhat more extended rationale that is only visible in the wikicode:
{{Disputed inline|Talk page section|date=June 2016|reason=This comes from a self-published source and conflicts with the reliable sources already cited.}}
{{Disputed inline}} should not be used without also raising the issue on the talk page.
Articles with disputed statements[edit]
This inline template helps highlight a disputed particular statement or alleged fact, in contrast to the {{Disputed}} and {{Disputed section}} templates which mark a whole article or section as disputed. This is particularly helpful when there are reliable sources supporting two or more different claims. {{Disputed inline}} should not be used without also raising the issue on the talk page. When used on an article page, the word "disputed" links to Wikipedia:Disputed statement, and the article is placed in Category:Accuracy disputes or one of its dated sub-categories. This template is a more strongly worded version of {{Dubious}}, which indicates a potential dispute, most often a question about reliable sourcing for the statement/fact at issue; {{Disputed inline}} indicates that at least one editor believes there is no question that the statement has a verifiability problem.
Other pages[edit]
If this tag is used outside the article namespace, it will not be categorized in an article cleanup category, and the word "disputed" links to Wikipedia:Consensus. It can be used to indicate an unresolved dispute and a talk page topic about the dispute, e.g. an issue at a guideline or WikiProject page.
For pages other than articles, {{Under discussion-inline}} may be more appropriate.
