Oou is for use on Doctor Who universe articles that have fallen foul of Tardis:Point of view and/or Tardis:Resources. Usually such a condition is easily diagnosed. If a DWU article is mainly written in the present tense, it's a candidate for this template. Or, if it uses sources we do not consider valid, this template could also be employed. Generally, editors should try to fix these errors on their own, but sometimes there just isn't time. Using this template at least alerts others to the problem.

Note that if the article is merely missing information, Template:Update is perhaps more appropriate. If it needs extensive copy-editing or substantial speculation removal, Template:Cleanup is the one to go for.

Usage

Type

{{oou}}

at the top of the article requiring attention.

This article needs an in-universe perspective.

It currently has too much of a real-world perspective. It may also be written primarily in the present tense. Please check the overall content against our Manual of Style, consult the talk page and revision history for any relevant notes, employ the past tense, and then remove this message.
