Template talk:Discuss

"Section is the optional section within the Talk page"

I am having difficulty in making the Section syntax of the [discuss] template do what I want it to do. There is no information in this Template Article on how to use this (examples). Thus, I am not only asking for assistance, but also for clarification within this template article.

I will provide an example: I found an issue in The Ren & Stimpy Show article. I wrote a new section in that article's Talk page. Now, I'm adding the [discuss] tag to the section of the article I'm trying to bring attention to. However, I can't seem to make the Section syntax link to the new section in the article's talk page. I've tested different ways to type the article link and previewed the results, but it continues to default to the top of the Talk page instead. What do I need to do to link to the new section on the Talk page?

This template shouldn't exist at all.

It goes against the WP:NOR principle, sorry, "guideline" of Wikipedia.

Discuss ;-)

Seriously though: isn't this always used for "fishing for sources" for what is in principle "original research"? In that it's only there if you write something that you have no sources for, but you think is true, so you link to the talk page hoping someone will add some sources? If you have reliable sources, a "discuss" is completely unneeded. jae (talk) 16:42, 7 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
