This page is under the stewardship of WikiProject user warnings; changes to it should reflect consensus. If you are planning to make any significant changes, please discuss them first at the centralized talk page. |
If you've never used a particular template before, or have not used it recently, read it (e.g., with preview) to ensure it actually says what you want to say. If you are new to user warning templates, please read the usage and layout page first. If you want to design a new template, please read the guidelines found on the design guidelines page first. |
