Wikipedia:TestTemplates/old grid

See Template messages/User talk namespace for an expanded page. These templates should always be used with the  keyword, as suggested on Template substitution. For example, type, not. They are shown without  here to reduce the space occupied by this large table.

To coordinate numbers, the previous blanking 2, 3 and 4 templates have been moved because they were out of sync with the numbering usage with other templates. The old templates, though not listed, can still be used as they redirect to the new name and number.

The numbering system being used across the templates is simple:


 * 0. Good faith edit
 * 1. General note
 * 2. Could be seen as vandalism
 * 3. Warning to stop
 * 4. Final warning
 * 5. Blocked
 * 6. Blocked plus severe warning

'If you are creating new templates, please follow the numbers above, even if you are not creating templates using all the numbers. That way, by using the right number, users will be able to know automatically what category of message the template refers to.'
