Template documentationUsage
{{Disputed inline|Talk page section|date=December 2024}}
To link to a centralized discussion on a page other than the article's talk page, use the |talk= parameter (a.k.a. |talkpage=, |discuss=, |discussion=) to give the location:
{{Disputed inline|talk=Talk:Topic#Talk page section|date=December 2024}}
The parameter |for= can be used to give a short reason that displays in the tag (do not use this for editorializing[when defined as?] 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=December 2024}}
{{Disputed inline}} should not be used without also raising the issue on the talk page and, as a general practice, should remain in place while the talk page discussion is active.
Articles with disputed statements
This inline template helps highlight a particular disputed 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 OODA WIKI: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
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 OODA WIKI: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, use {{Under discussion inline}}, which categorizes differently.
