{{nutshell|A handy link to use when improperly accused of [[WP:IDHT]] (I didn't hear that) during talk page disputes.}}

Quite often, in a talk page dispute, it will come down to one person thinking that if they repeat their argument enough, they'll win. If that doesn't work, they'll invariably whip out the ole' [[WP:IDHT]] link, thinking that citing a wiki-policy will suddenly give them that decisive advantage. The best way to respond to that is to politely say; "''I did hear, [[WP:IDAWT|I just don't agree with that]].''"

*Bertram: "''The problem here is you have a bad case of [[WP:IDHT]]''"
*Ernesto: "''No, I heard you, [[WP:IDAWT|I just don't agree with that]].''"
Now you can add your own link for good measure. (Just don't pay any attention to the fact that the discussions take place visually and there is no audio component.) This new process is estimated to cut down on content disputes by up to 50%.{{cn|date=February 2016}}
