Particracy Wiki:Objection

Due to the community nature of a wiki, and the diversity of opinions, disputes will erupt over pages and their factual accuracy. Instead of edit wars, users on Particracy Wiki can opt to make a point on the discussion page, and use either of these templates on the main page to draw attention to the fact. This will mean that other users can respond promptly to an objection to deep disagreements civil, short and to a minimum.

The tag is used for minor objections where a small disagreement over a statistic or a little detail can be resolved quickly without causing too much of a commotion. More details should be placed on the talk page to discuss and conclude the issue. Edit the page in question and place at the top.

The template appears like this:

The tag is used for more general and larger disagreements. It appears like this:

The talk page of the article should be used to express the argument being made, rather than relying on just the comment. Suitable grounds may include:


 * NPOV - A Non-Neutral Point of View on a neutral article may offend other nations in the game.
 * OOC/IC Mismatch - Where the lines between Out of Character issues and In Character issues are blurred to the point of reality falling apart and the universe ending.
 * Factual Accuracy - Where a point made is simply and grossly incorrect (for minor statistical problems, use, but a magnum opus of statistical mistakes falls under Factual Accuracy or Gross Exagguration).
 * Abuse - IC insults are common between characters, OOC insults should be kept to the forum.
 * Gross Exagguration - Where the statistics used and gains/losses of war are too unrealistic; a common civil war offence.
 * Spam - Doesn't belong on the wiki or has been repeated.

The template is, however, quite open and any grounds can be inputted. Silly grounds will make us less likely to take the objection seriously, and we recommend you stick to the defaults.

Consequences
All pages with either tag on are in. This allows for quick access to ongoing disputes so that anyone can have their say on the matter before the case is closed.
