"Major" is of course a subjective word, but, as the wording of the template says, it should be used only when there are multiple issues involved. Perhaps the entire article needs intense copy-editing. Maybe the article is so rife with speculation that it is no longer factual. Note that "multiple issues" doesn't necessarily mean that it's got more than one of these issues wrong with it. It could just have a lot of one of them. When you place the template on the page, you should leave a note on the talk page so as to let others know why you placed the template there.

Note that if the article is merely missing information, Template:Update is perhaps more appropriate. If it's a Doctor Who universe article with an out-of-universe or non-canonical perspective, you should use Template:Oou.
