  • date= (optional): Month and year when template was applied.
  • section= (optional, recommended): section of the talk page which contains discussion on the title dispute. A recommended argument for this is Disputed title
  • page= (optional, replaces section): instead of linking the section of a talk page, allows you to link an entirely different page for the discussion. This can be used when the discussion is occurring on a subpage of the talkpage or a different forum.
