Forum:Vandalism Template

Hello, I'm wondering if we have a Vandalism template. I've searched through the site and haven't seen one yet. I know you could just leave a message at the vandal's talk-page telling him/her to stop but, I personally think it's not detailed enough. I mean, it should list all the types of vandalism, like it is listed here. But it it's written on the template, which makes it easier to warn vandals. This is an example of a Vandalism Template.

I think it's a good idea. It'll make us disaffected. And really, we shouldn't waste any time on these assholes. --YazzyDream 02:12, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

I think that a classic "stop you, stupid noob" is funnier for us. I'm against this template. However since i will not create it, you can do what you want and use it.--Meganoide 15:33, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Great idea, since these vandals only gives us a hard time, we should give them a hard time in return. Heck, we should put an insult or two in the template, so they should feel the pain. While on the subject, can we also create a template to banned users, so we know which people have already been banned? Yatanogarasu 15:42, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

There is Template:Blocked but it is not used for some reason. Ruxax 18:37, August 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Then, can we please update and put this template on every banned person? Yatanogarasu 18:40, August 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Appeal to Mugiwara Franky, he's the one who can block vandals. Ruxax 19:00, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure if making a template that insults people is a good idea. This forum was kinda created due to a message I left to the returning You are neaderthal guy. The guy, under another new name, had the nerve to request a quick ban on certain people that constantly reverted his edits which included me, Yatanogarasu, and Tipota to name a few. The message I left for him was perfectly justified. I've been simply banning him without comments prior to this since he doesn't seem to be listening. Even before that, I tried reasoning with him but all he replied was his community hating mantra.

As to applying the template, maybe it would be best to apply it to blocked users after its design is formalized. The idea of putting it on past blocked users kinda opens old wounds for me. Plus there have been alot of blocked users to remember.Mugiwara Franky 09:09, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Honnestly I don't understand the interest of such a template. Kdom 21:36, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

I think it's a good idea. It would get the message across way better than just some little warning.DancePowderer 22:04, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

The Template
What should it have and what should it look like? Does it have to be pirate themed?  &lt;|Munchable901|&gt; &lt;Contact&gt;  04:12, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

How about this?

 * But isn't that a "block" template? The Vandalism Template is supposed to be like a warning.  &lt;|Munchable901|&gt; &lt;Contact&gt;  19:36, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh! I thought we talking about Template:Blocked cuz it's mentioned above. I don't know, if it's just warnings we usually just tell them? I'll make another one quickly. -- YazzyDream  19:52, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

It wouldn't hurt, we never had one before since we left messages on a users talk page. we go by the rule of "3 strikes your out" generally as thats what we went by. The first time they vandalise however, we issues a friendly note of gesture what they did will make them loose strikes, just to point out they can and will get banned. We have a vandalism guideline/rule somewhere... One-Winged Hawk 18:39, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah and guys, fon't forget to consultand correct those guidelines... I don't want to be left as unhappy as the char box template left me because no one brought up the guidelines once. One-Winged Hawk 18:40, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
