User:IronGargoyle/OW

These templates are placed on talk pages to warn a user against vandalism, convey a standardized message, or to place a standard boilerplate note at the top of a page. The templates are listed alphabetically and by series, and organized by intent: 'Warnings', 'Messages', 'Page headers', or 'shortcuts'.

Remember to always add "subst:" to substitute messages, so that the message does not change from what the user originally saw and perhaps responded to. Other user talk templates probably shouldn't be substituted in general, so that they can benefit from improvements, there's not tons of confusing code in the edit box, etc. (See Template substitution for more information.) Note that the WikiProject on User Warnings seeks to create a standardized set of templates that are intended to replace these.

Grid of warnings
Note that these templates are currently being organized and cleaned up at WikiProject user warnings.

Shortcuts
These are shortened template names that redirect to a real template. See the usage notes on the talk page of the real template (under "Redirects to").

This, is registered to Organization, and may be shared by multiple users. In the case of organizations using proxy servers, this IP address may in fact represent many users at many physical computers.

For this reason, a message intended for one person may be received by another and a block shared by many. If you are editing from this address and are frustrated by irrelevant messages, you can avoid them by creating an account for yourself. In some cases, you may temporarily be unable to create an account due to efforts to fight vandalism, in which case, please see here.

If you are autoblocked repeatedly, we encourage you to contact your Internet service provider or IT department and ask them to contact Wikimedia's XFF project about enabling X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on their proxy servers so that our editing blocks will affect only the intended user. Alternatively, you can list the IP at WikiProject on XFFs. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking - if a block is needed, administrators should consider using a soft block with the template {&#123;anonblock&#124;optional comment&#125;} as the block reason.
