I left this template for someone the other day and they came back to me for an explanation. I think it could use some clarification. -- [[User:Flyguy649|Flyguy649]] [[User talk:Flyguy649|^talk]]]] [[Special:Contributions/Flyguy649|_contribs]]]] 16:18, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

== Date page warnings ==

The Wikicalendar articles have guidelines that might not be common knowledge for passing editors. I've created two warnings for use in reference to bad edits to those articles. They tell the user what they did wrong where a regular vandalism warning doesn't tell them much. I propose adding them to the regular template space. They can be viewed at [[user:Mufka/uw-date1]] and [[user:Mufka/uw-date2]]. I also use [[user:Mufka/uw-fd1]] but it's a little less useful for most editors. I like them and I thought others might like them. -- <font color="#000080">Mufka</font> [[User:Mufka|^(u)]] [[User talk:Mufka|^(t)]] [[Special:Contributions/Mufka|^(c)]]]] 02:46, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

:I dunno, the "guidelines" linked on the proposed messages are just for the WikiProject. The "uw-" template messages usually only reference official policy. Project guidelines are not all that enforceable. Might be a tough sell.

Yes, this is something of a joke, but I have already used it twice in the couple of days since I created it. "Birthday" vandalism is so common that I once made a request on [[WP:AN]] to semiprotect all date articles such as [[February 15]] because of excessive vandalism.

Line 1,544:

The prohibition on "Wikipedia" no longer appears in [[WP:U]]. It now reads, "... Usernames that confusingly refer to a Wikipedia process, namespace, or toolbar item."

Wording should be changed to reflect this: '''Change:''' "...contains the word Wikipedia or the name of any other Wikimedia Foundation project..." '''to:''' "... refers to a Wikipedia or Wikimedia Foundation process or namespace...". Just a suggestion.
