Purpose

This template should be rarely used. The purpose of the "unresolved" tag is to give a visual hint to readers of talk page items that a topic contains important unresolved issues, most commonly an action or change that has been agreed to by consensus but not yet actually dealt with, or a consensus discussion that failed to reach consensus, but needs to go one way or another to solve an extant problem. Its intended uses are to:

• Be a reminder of important problem-solving that has been on the back burner for too long
• Warn editors away from manually archiving a topic that still contains uncompleted action items
• Serve as a marker that is detectable by archive bots, to ignore a topic that should not be archived (no known bots actually support this at this time, as the template is too recent).

It is emphatically not for marking a topic as contentious (which is quite often the case with still-active topics, and no surprise to anyone), marking all un-{{Resolved}} topics on a page as needing resolution (the fact that they have no {{Resolved}} tag on them is already indication enough), tagging a topic as moribund-before-resolution (see {{Stale}} instead), or challenging the marking of a topic as "Resolved" (just remove the {{Resolved}} tag, as explained in that template's documentation.)

The "unresolved" tag is not final and does not necessarily re-open, or keep open, a discussion. If the issue really is settled and any action items agreed to by consensus have been performed, or if there is no actual consensus for any such action items, please remove the tag, and replace it with {{Resolved}} or {{Stale}}, etc., or nothing, as appropriate. In particular, PoV-pushing by abuse of this template (e.g. lone-editor prevention of archival of a discussion no one else is interested in) should be reverted.

This tag can be also used in admin processes to note that an action item reported to a notice board has yet to be dealt with and should be immediately, and can further be of help on user talk pages to sort messages to be retained for continued discussion or followup action, from those {{Resolved}} or needing no further followup and ready for archival.

Usage

Place the following under the subject heading of a topic on a talk page:

{{Unresolved|1=~~~~}}

Unresolved: — JohnDoe 00:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

(The 1= is necessary if there are any "=" characters in the message, for example if your raw signature contains "=".)

To add an additional comment explaining why the issue is unresolved or what action needs to be taken, and/or to sign so that others know who marked the thread as unresolved:

{{Unresolved|1=Articles have not been updated with 2007 data, and are not in sync. --~~~~}}

Unresolved: Articles have not been updated with 2007 data, and are not in sync. --JohnDoe 00:26, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Example

== Notable enthusiasts of the game ==
{{Unresolved|1=Split list off, keep here, or delete as trivia? ~~~~}}
Does anyone agree the list is misplaced, not to mention uncredited?  More important, to me at least,
would be  a list of famous players.  Can we agree to remove or move that section?

:Yes. To the extent that it remains unsourced, it is actually endangering the main article,
as [[WP:AFD|AfD]]able "[[WP:NOR|original research]]".

::Agreed, but move or delete? — [[User:OneMoreUser456|OneMoreUser456]] 13 July 2007 12:14 (UTC)
:It's been a month now. We need to do something about this (and to decide precisely what to do).
