It may only be used if the user has previously received any contentious topic alert, and it can be replaced by a custom message that conveys the contentious topic designation.
- {{alert/DS}} ({{Contentious topics/alert/DS}}) is used to inform editors that the old "discretionary sanctions" system has been replaced by the contentious topics system, and that a specific topic is a contentious topic.
- {{Contentious topics/aware}} is used to register oneself as already aware that a specific topic is a contentious topic.

Talk page notices
- {{Contentious topics/talk notice}} is used to provide additional communication, using a talk page messagebox (tmbox), to editors that they are editing a page that is covered by the contentious topics system.

Four Mapei riders – Italians Franco Ballerini, Gianluca Bortolami, Andrea Tafi and Belgian Johan Museeuw – broke clear at 86 km from the finish. Ballerini, the winner of the previous edition, punctured shortly after; his team mates subsequently powering on to Roubaix. Museeuw won the race on the velodrome in Roubaix, without sprinting, before Bortolami and Tafi who completed the all-Mapei podium.[1] All three were riding Colnago C40 bicycles.
15 km before the finish, Patrick Lefevere, directeur sportif of the Mapei team, had received a phone call from Mapei’s managing director, Giorgio Squinzi. Squinzi called from the company headquarters in Milan to tell that Museeuw should win the race. Despite objections, mainly from Tafi, both Italians concurred with the decision and Museeuw claimed his first victory in Paris–Roubaix.[2]
