WP:VW

The following is a simplified system of vandalism warnings.

On this page, the letters V and W stand for Vandalism Warning, and not Volkswagen.

{{vw0}} - assumes the edit was a test

{{vw1}} - level 1 warning, still assumes some good faith

{{vw2}} - level 2 warning, more of a caution

{{vw3}} - level 3 warning, warning mentions blocking

{{vw4}} - level 4 warning, final warning

{{vw5}} - temporary block

{{vw6}} - temporary block with talk page access revoked

{{vw7}} - indefinite block

{{vw8}} - indefinite block with talk page access revoked
