Forum:CT Archive/When to use the Twoconflicting sources template

This is my first attempt at a CT, so bear with me please.

In light of a discrepancy I had with an objector over the use of the   template, I was advised that the creation of a consensus track may be prudent. While I may not personally like the template for purely aesthetic reasons, I do understand that there are valid instances where it should be implemented. My situation involved the Gobee article, and currently involves the Battle of Iziz (Beast Wars) article up for FAN. Both of these appear in two TOTJ sources (Tales of the Jedi: Ulic Qel-Droma and the Beast Wars of Onderon & Tales of the Jedi (audio)), where the same general story is told but the events transpire differently in some spots.

I personally feel that the template should be used when significant portions of the story disagree, as well as explaining the discrepancy in the BtS. Some editors feel that the template isn’t necessary, and mentions in BtS sections will suffice. To avoid future/potential conflicts between nominators and objectors, I pose this question to the community. This is not a very complicated issue, so I would like to just skip to the debate/vote part of this. —Tommy9281 ( Peace is a lie ) 03:04, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
