Surely the template's wording should more clearly reflect the former? <span class="vcard"><span class="fn">[[User:Pigsonthewing|Andy Mabbett]]</span> (<span class="nickname">Pigsonthewing</span>); [[User talk:Pigsonthewing|Talk to Andy]]; [[Special:Contributions/Pigsonthewing|Andy's edits]]</span> 22:48, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
:{{u|Pigsonthewing}}, eh, I'd consider "strongly discouraged" to be pretty close to "we ask that you not," but if you think worth changing, what new wording would you suggest? <sup><small>[[User:Creffpublic|creffpublic]]</small></sup> <sub style="margin-left:-8ex"><small>a [[User:Creffett|creffett]] franchise</small></sub> ([[User_talk:Creffett|talk to the boss]]) 15:55, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
== number of ways your talk posts get signed ==
The template {{tlx|Uw-tilde}} currently says there are two ways to sign your posts: manually adding tildes or using the signature button.
But isn't this incomplete info? For one thing, I'm pretty sure my talk page messages get automatically signed for me when I'm making edits on my phone. I request someone in the know look into the wording of Template:Uw-tilde to ensure it is up to date and complete, for all platforms.

== Template-protected edit request on 26 September 2019 ==

{{edit template-protected|Template:Uw4im|answered=yes}}
Replace the word "harm" in the default reason with the word "disrupt". The word "disrupt" is more generic than the word "harm", and the purpose of [[Template:Uw3]], [[Template:Uw4]] and [[Template:Uw4im]] is to provide a generic base for user warnings of those levels. <span style="font-family:monospace;font-size:14px;">[[User:InvalidOS|<span style="color:#06A;">Invalid</span>]]<sup>[[User:InvalidOS/c|<span style="color:#A60">OS</span>]]</sup> ([[User:InvalidOS/t|talk]])</span> 15:45, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
:From a writing perspective, it is awkward to use the word "disrupt" twice in quick succession. From a consensus perspective, the phrasing has apparently used the word "harm" for the entire nine-year life of this template, so you'll need a new consensus to modify that wording. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 15:59, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
:: Ehm? If you or I aren't happy with a wording, [[User:Jonesey95]] we '''boldly edit''' it. Only if you get reverted do you need to take it to talk, achieve consensus and so on. We certainly do not need to start a discussion (taking up time of others, delaying the change, etc) for every little change that just might be entirely uncontroversial.

:::{{u|CapnZapp}}, they're [[WP:TPROT|template-protected]] templates so [[WP:BRD]] doesn't apply. Consensus first, ''then'' change. [[User:Cabayi|Cabayi]] ([[User talk:Cabayi|talk]]) 07:38, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
