Template:RefutedFather

This template is used on a Person page to indicate that evidence refutes a specific father for the person.

▼Usage

Place the following on the Person page.

{{RefutedFather|PersonPageName}}

where PersonPageName is the simple page name (without the "Person:"), like "George Washington (1)".

When using this template, it is particularly important to support the fact with sources and notes. An unsupported assertion is not compelling.

You should also add a corresponding "RefutedChild" template on the refuted father's Person page. That template usage should give the Person page name of the page you use this template on.

Suggested Placement

This template was designed for placement in the "Description" field of an event/fact (a fact type of "Other" can be used), rather than for use within a narrative (note the label included in the display). However, it can be used in the "Narrative" section, followed by a explanation of why the relationship is refuted.

▼Example

{{RefutedFather|George Washington (1)}}

will appear as:

Refuted father: George Washington (1)
