Template:Request edit/request/doc

Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline strongly discourages editing articles that you have a close personal connection with, especially when the edits may be seen as controversial. If this is the case for you, please use this template on the article's talk page to suggest changes rather than making them directly. Editors browsing Category:Requested edits will notice your request and respond to it.

Requester: To use this template, click on "New section" at the top of the article's Talk page, then paste Request edit into the input box (below the subject line). It should be followed by a specific request in the form "Please change X to Y" and a justification for the change. Vague requests will be declined or put on hold. Where appropriate, please provide a reliable independent reference for the change, per WP:RELIABLE. Also set out your conflict of interest. Check back to see if the responder has requested clarification. If so, provide it and then delete the four character code  to re-enable the template.

Responder: Please replace the Request edit template with the code when the request is completed, declined, or placed on hold awaiting clarification from the requester. This removes it from the que.
