 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Warn. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Warn}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |
- Advises users to warn unconstructive editors after undoing their edits.
- Uses the (optional) first parameter as the page name you're referring to when saying "... thank you for recently undoing unconstructive edits." The page name will be wikilinked.
- Auto signs using your own signature, and optionally creates its own section heading.
- The auto signing will not work if you do not substitute the template.
- If the auto section heading is wanted, add any value as a second param.
Examples
{{subst:Warn|Example|1}} – Provides advice to warn, refers to a page Example, auto section heading, and signed.
{{subst:Warn}} – Provides advice to warn, no reference to a specific page, no auto section heading, and signed.
{{subst:Warn|Example}} – Provides advice to warn, refers to a page Example, no auto section heading, and signed.
