{{Template_notes
|Do '''not''' use this template unless there is an ongoing dispute in an article.
|The editor placing this template in an article should promptly begin a discussion on the article's talk page. In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant, then this tag may be removed by any editor.
|The purpose of this group of templates is to attract editors with different viewpoints to edit articles that need additional insight. This template should not be used as a [[badge of shame]]. Do not use this template to "warn" readers about the article.
|This template should only be applied to articles that are reasonably believed to lack a neutral point of view, and specifically because of [[WP:BIAS|systemic bias]] problems (for more unusual forms of bias, such as a heavily Bostonian or UFO-believing or anti-Nietzsche or whatever POV, use {{tl|POV}}. The neutral point of view is determined by the prevalence of a perspective in [[WP:RS|high-quality reliable sources]], not by its prevalence among Wikipedia editors, and is furthest from systemic bias when these sources are culturally diverse.
}}

== Usage ==
Place {{tlx|Systemic bias|bias=<var>Topic or type of bias</var>}} at the top of the disputed article, then explain your reasons on the article's [[WP:TP|talk page]]. To specify the section of the talk page, use {{tlx|Systemic bias|1=<var>Talk page section name</var>|bias=<var>Topic/type of bias</var>}}. Articles using this template as shown above are placed into [[:Category:NPOV disputes]]. The {{para|bias}} parameter automatically italicizes whatever is specified there, and wikicode can be used (e.g. to link to a relevant article).

This template can take an optional date parameter in the format {{para|date|<var>Monthname</var> <var>YYYY</var>}} or {{para|date|{<nowiki />{subst:DATE<nowiki>}}</nowiki>}}. If the date is not included it will probably be added later by a [[WP:BOT|bot]]. Articles using this template with a date are added to ''Category:NPOV disputes from <var>Monthname</var> <var>YYYY</var>''.

This template should only be used in the main (article) namespace. Do not place this template on talk pages, user pages, [[WP:PG|policies and guidelines]], or other non-article pages.

* This [[Wikipedia:Template|template]] is a [[Wikipedia:Avoid self-references|self-reference]].
* Please do not [[Wikipedia:Subst|subst]] this template.

=== Example using current date and other features ===

Template:
:: {{tlx|Systemic bias|1=European slant|bias=[[Western culture|Western cultural values]]|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
Output:
{{Systemic bias|1=European slant|bias=[[Western culture|Western cultural values]]|date={{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
Category:
:: [[:Category:NPOV disputes from {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}]]

== Alternatives ==
To mark only a section as disputed, rather than a whole article, use {{tl|POV section}}. It is not [[WP:BIAS]]-specific. See below for a list of other [[WP:NPOV]]-related templates.

For suspected POV issues which are not disputed, consider the {{tl|POV check}} template instead. See [[Wikipedia:NPOV dispute]] for more info.
