When to use

 * Use this template to dispute a guidance in an essay (or in a section on an essay)
 * This template is only for ongoing, active disputes that are evidenced in talk page discussion. It is not intended for flagging a project page or section as vaguely controversial, nor for indicating a personal dislike of the document. There is no such thing as an indefinitely disputed page.  These tags should not be used as a badge of shame. If there is no active discussion, then the tag may be removed by any editor.

How to use

 * Place at the top of the page or section that you intend to discuss.
 * Optionally specify:
 * Either, a talk page section:  will link "talk page" to Talk:PageName#Discussion.


 * Or, a full page-link: (usually to a centralized talk-page)  will link "talk page" to Talk:MyPage#Discussion.


 * A short message about what to do instead -- for editors lacking time to analyze the current discussion:
 * Up to 5 Shortcut-links, as described for Template:Shortcut.
 * If the tag applies strictly to a specific section of a policy or guideline, append the following parameter:  . This will cause the template to appear as:

Alternatives

 * Many times, your concerns can be addressed through a normal discussion, without placing this tag on the page.
 * If you disagree with a Historical tag, do not use this template; instead, advertise the page on e.g. WP:RFC and the village pump to get more people involved, so that it becomes active once more.
