<p>Add local editing help and repair template-index policy and help links; retain index layout</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Maintenance notices identify an editing problem. Read the notice, its documentation and any linked discussion before deciding whether to remove it. Follow [[Project:Responsible tagging]].<br /> <br /> == Resolve the stated problem ==<br /> For missing sources, add evidence for the affected statements and check that the citations support them. For unclear wording, revise the passage. For a factual or neutrality dispute, address the specific objection on the article talk page. Replacing one notice with another does not resolve the underlying issue.<br /> <br /> == Remove a resolved notice ==<br /> Edit the page and remove the relevant template call, including its parameters, without deleting the surrounding article text. If a notice is inside a multiple-issues box, remove only the resolved issue. Preview the result and explain the correction in your edit summary.<br /> <br /> == When editors disagree ==<br /> Explain why a notice is unsupported, obsolete or resolved and invite a specific response. Do not repeatedly remove and restore it. Follow [[Project:Dispute]] and the existing response periods in [[Project:User Conduct Rules]]. A deletion, protection or administrative notice can represent an ongoing process; consult the relevant local policy and administrator rather than treating it as an ordinary cleanup tag.</div>
