'''Dispute templates''' are used to alert other editors that work is needed on a certain article, and auto-categorize pages so that patrolling editors can add their talent to the problem. The primary purpose of this page is to display and discuss the use of these sometimes controversial aids to joint edit collaboration.
 
They should normally not be used without a clear description from the applying editor of the rationale, preferably presented in a numbered list form on the article's talk page, in a section which includes the name of the template that was applied. As these items are dealt with, it is suggested each line be struck through. Some guidance should be given by the posting editor as to what action will resolve the matter when using section and article (page) tagging templates.
Notices for disputed statements or unclear sourcing.
 
It is preferable that in-line templates be applied to content that is being objected to on bias or fact grounds.
Identify the disputed statement and explain the issue on the article talk page. Link evidence relevant to Elite Dangerous. Use the local neutrality and dispute guidance linked below.
<!-- When applying multiple inline tags, it is suggested that each include an inline commented identification code number or word that can be referred to in subsequent discussions on the articletalk. (Example: <nowiki>{{fact|<!- FB-061231-07 ->}}</nowiki>, where FB is an initial extracted from a user name, and there are presumably six earlier tags applied by FB on 2006-12-31 ''on the same page''.)
-->
Inline templates are preferred because they can be attached directly to disputed sentences. Section templates follow next in preference to tagging a whole article.
 
Many editors consider use of any banner template in an article a serious measure of last resort, and would prefer other measures be exhausted before such detractions from the project be used. If one must be used, please make a thorough note listing deficiencies or items being disputed in bulleted or numbered paragraph format under a clear notice section heading on the article's talk page.
== Local templates ==
Open a template page for its parameters and examples. These links identify existing local templates; their inclusion does not certify every imported behaviour.
 
Please remember to use these appropriately, and use the most specific messages you can find for the situation.
