Copy

Info header
Mandatory

  • Text: "Disputes with another user. The information on this page is intended to help you resolve the incident."

"What to do next"

Mandatory:

  • Text: "Disagreements on Wikipedia are normal; editors will frequently disagree with each other, particularly on content decisions. Editors are expected to engage in good faith to resolve their disputes, and must not personalise disputes. Many disputes can be resolved without external input, through gradual editing, discussion, and attempts to understand the legitimate objections of others.

If discussion stalemates, editors can seek outside input to help resolve the dispute."

"How to request help"
Configurable through community config:
--Text (at least one option needs to be selected):

    • Contact an Admin for help with urgent or ongoing incidents on-wiki
    • Email your concern to [email@domain.com]
    • If you’re unsure what to do, ask the community for help
  • Links:
    • "Contact an Admin" link is configurable
    • Email is configurable
    • "ask the community for help" link is configurable

If no option is selected, this section will display the following default text:
" For issues that occur on-wiki it is recommended that you contact an admin or use a community noticeboard for help with urgent and ongoing incidents."

"Can't find what you're looking for?"
Mandatory
