Wikipedia:Review of complex content disputes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Content disputes which are complex in nature do not easily lend themselves to most available avenues of dispute resolution. This is particularly true of disputes which surround sources and how they are used in an article. If involved editors cannot by discussion resolve such issues, then anyone offering a third opinion, responding to a Request for Comment, or mediating would need to be somewhat familiar not only with the article but also with the sources in order to make any real progress. It may therefore be helpful to request a thorough review of the disputed content by an outside party. Such a review can include examination of the relevant sources. The disputed content may encompass most of an article, and several editors may be involved; this process is geared toward complex disputes.

Follow these instructions to make your request for review below:

  1. Begin a new entry with a # symbol below earlier entries to preserve the numbering and chronological order of the list.
  2. Provide a section link to the most applicable talk page section, followed by a concise description of the dispute. This description should be as neutral as possible.
  3. Sign with five tildes (~~~~~) to add the date without your name. This is important to maintain neutrality.
  4. Copy and paste this text to the line below: * '''Users currently reviewing:'''
