Purpose
Sometimes discussions may escalate and become heated. This template may be used to help calm the contributors, which may lead to more efficient resolution of the issue(s).
Usage
- This template may be used as a talk page header or among other headers and banners at the TOP of the page. It may also be included within a section to bring its message directly to those who are trying to resolve an issue.
- Add this at or near the TOP of a talk page in the following manner:
{{Calm}}
- There is one unnamed parameter for use when this template is used in a section of a talk page:
{{Calm|section}}
- This slightly changes the wording for use in a talk page section to:
| Peace dove with olive branch in its beak | Please stay calm and civil while commenting or presenting evidence, and do not make personal attacks. Be patient when approaching solutions to any issue. If consensus is not reached, other solutions – e.g. dispute resolution noticeboard – exist to draw attention and ensure that more editors mediate or sound on the vexed question. |
