User:Gwernol/warnusers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thank you for reverting vandalism to the article {{{1}}}. Your help is greatly appreciated. I notice that after you reverted the vandalism, you didn't warn the user involved. Could I ask that in the future you consider warning users who vandalize article? Its easy to do and has two significant benefits. First it tells the vandal that we are keeping an eye on them - many users stop vandalizing as soon as they receive a warning. Second it lets other editors know about previous episodes of vandalism and makes it much easier to leave appropriate warnings and know when to impose blocks, if required.

Warning is really easy. Just leave a {{test}} tag on the user's talk page. In the first case of vandalism you leave a {{test1}}, the second time {{test2}} and so on up to {{test4}}. If the user already has a recent {{test4}} notice you can report them to the vandalism noticeboard. You can learn more about the warning system at the vandalism page. Good luck and thanks again for helping us remove vandalism from Wikipedia. Best,
