Template:Fringe theories
 |
When to use
[编辑]Place this template on an article when you have identified a serious issue of balance and the lack of a neutral point of view, and you wish to attract editors with different viewpoints to the article. Please also explain on the article's talk page why you are adding this tag, identifying specific issues that are actionable within Wikipedia's content policies.
An unbalanced or non-neutral article is one that does not fairly represent the balance of perspectives of high-quality, reliable secondary sources. A balanced article presents mainstream views as being mainstream, and minority views as being minority views. The personal views of Wikipedia editors or the public are irrelevant.
When to remove
[编辑]This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
- There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
- It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
- In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.
How to use
[编辑]Place {{Fringe theories|date=12月 2024}} at the top of the disputed article, then explain your reasons on the article's talk page. To specify the section of the talk page, use {{Fringe theories|talk=talk page section name}}. If the date is not included it will probably be added later by a WP:BOT.
This template will categorize tagged articles in Category:Articles needing more viewpoints or a dated subcategory thereof.
This template should only be used in the main (article) namespace. Do not place this template on talk pages, user pages, policies and guidelines, or other pages.
- This template is a self-reference.
- Please do not subst: this template.
Alternatives
[编辑]If the dispute involves only a section of an article, use {{Fringe-section}}.
If the dispute involves non-neutral presentation of viewpoints, but not actually fringe theories, use {{POV}} or {{POV-section}}. See below for a list of other similar templates.
For suspected POV issues which are not disputed, consider the {{POV-check}} template instead. See Wikipedia:NPOV dispute for more info.
For issues relating to article balance due to insufficient coverage of the subject rather than editorial bias, use {{Cleanup-weighted}}
