Forum:RE: Warning templates

Hello all, I want to use this forum to discuss and possibly improve our warning templates (like the ones listed here). I think that they could be improved to make them a little less daunting and a little more useful. At the moment, a lot of our warning templates are of this format, where we have a list of possibilities of what the user did wrong, rather than something explicitly explaining what the user did wrong.

Now I do know that lots of times, the precise thing the user did wrong is mentioned in the space where the signature goes. But this then removes the need to have the breakdown of possible infractions on the template. And that's a theme that I think if we removed, would make our warning templates a little less physically large, and a little less intimidating.

The ideas I put above don't have to be the only ideas we discuss here, any other ideas, even ideas as minor as changing the colour or thinning out the border, are appreciated. Thanks for reading! 12:32, April 16, 2014 (UTC)
