Q&A


[edit] Purpose

The purpose of the "QA" tag is to give a visual hint that a talk item is in Question-Answer format regarding factual information which is missing or unclear in the article.

This template is to show an item on a talk page is a factual question/answer. That is, the initial comment or request asked a question and it has been answered with an undisputed reply.

The tag should be seen as an indication of information that may be missing from the article. If the information is added or shown to already exist in the article, then a reply to that effect should be added and the tag changed from {{QA}} to {{Resolved}}

If the QA tag is not appropriate or becomes inappropriate (e.g. if non-fact related issues arise) then simply remove the tag. Anyone may do this.

[edit] Usage

{{QA}}

Place under the topic heading on a talk page.
