Template:Sic is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should be proposed here first. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use ((edit template-protected)) to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes or categories.
Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. Functionality of the template can be checked using test cases. |

A related discussion about the possible use of ((sic)) in conjunction with CS1/CS2 citation templates, related issues and potential solutions: Help_talk:Citation_Style_1#Journal_template_&_sic --Matthiaspaul (talk) 18:24, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Instead of saying "[sic]", to avoid the template being blended into the rest of a sentence, it should use <small></small>
tags. ([sic]) That way, it's easier to pick out. (e.g., "at this point alot [sic] of people could care less")

Is it appropriate to use ((sic)) for a fact or spelling that another editor might, incorrectly, question and change? Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 13:58, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
Amdahl 470V/6I have the comment
<!-- The V goes before the slash -->
|reason=
parameter, and I has assumed that anybody writing a ((stet)) template would follow suit. I'd be tempted to make it mandatory.|title=
also had the incorrect model, despite there being a |url=
that would have allowed the editor to easily check the spelling from the title page. --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 13:18, 28 December 2022 (UTC)This template should wrap its output in a <span> tag with a class so that automated tools can pick up from the emitted HTML as well that the text isn't a typo.
