Purpose
[edit]I see this template often and I often wonder what it's meant to impart. That Wikipedia acknowledges that the topic is controversial? That should be readily apparent by a number of other warnings and links to prior discussions by that point. That we want users to follow our standard dispute resolution process? I doubt the current language would be successful at that, especially as that language is already shoved into the standard talk header template. That we want users to abide by NPOV? Doubtful that this template sandwiched on the talk page will cut it. Is there one singular thing we're looking for users to get from this? Because there might be a better way to express it with existing templates. czar 22:37, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
