Pages relating to the coronavirus are currently subject to active discretionary sanctions. In general, editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to edit in accordance with the purpose of Wikipedia, the expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be sanctioned by any uninvolved administrator.

These templates can be used on talk pages to alert editors that consensus has been formed on certain points of interest related to all (or a subset of) COVID-19 articles. The major benefit of such templates is the avoidance of repeated discussions on contentious topics, especially from new or infrequent editors.
