Please don't be silly

Please don't monkey about with joke edits. We try hard here to produce something we can all be proud of, and silliness doesn't help. Articles are monitored, and users messing around could be blocked. Why not try to contribute something useful instead? Have a look at the below and get stuck in properly:

Template usage notes
  • Most testN and related templates take a single optional parameter: the name of the page to which the template is referring. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
    • test5 optionally takes two parameters:
      1. Duration of the block (defaults to "temporarily blocked");
      2. Name of the page to which the template is referring. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning.
  • Before placing any of these templates on a user's talk page, please refer to the index of test templates in case there is a more appropriate template there for you to use. This should minimize the possibility of the user being confused by your message.
  • Please remember to substitute the template (i.e. use {{subst:Silly}} rather than {{Silly}}).
