Template talk:Reminder

Why don't you just make it: {| style="margin: .15em;"
 * Please stop ' on the . This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues deliberately''', then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing.
 * }
 * }

and get them to insert ? That would be soo much easier.-- Marioguy1 My talk page (haha, no link for you ) 02:21, 9 July 2009 (EDT)

It was like that, originally. I don't know why it was changed. I notice that the usage example on the page still reflects this... 02:34, 9 July 2009 (EDT)
 * I have an idea on how this template could look...See User:Marioguy1/Templates!
 * I like your idea, it looks nice with the smiley face. The image makes it look better. 00:34, 23 July 2009 (EDT)
 * Yes this one is very strict, it makes users feel bad and I think some user (on Yoshario's talk page) quit because of a reason like that (his mom had to get Yoshario to explain that he did nothing wrong). My biggest worry is that they won't like the little block sign at the top of the page that says:This user has been warned (or should).
 * I personally liked that aspect, you can find out if a user has been previously warned. Yay, Subscript Day!

That's why I added it, I refrained from adding a category of Users with warning because that may of been too much changing...Now I've got to go nag Coincollector to vote, soya!

Well, not bad ur new version; at least does not look very monotonous like this used.
 * Well, I need several admins to agree before I can get it changed, wait *Marioguy1 sniffs the air* Stoooben...
 * That's it, I'm spamming the talk of the next admin to come on to get over here...Anyhow, here's my version.

How can you say no to that cute smiley?

Comments
Well, I DO think that this is an interesting concept, but at the same time, I kind of feel that it's a bit unnecessary. By "unconstructive edits", you mean vandalism, right? If so, then people who deliberately come to vandalize articles don't need warnings, they need to be banned on the spot.
 * No, making unconstructive edits is the default answer if you enter no reason. If you enter a reason it will change to something else, if you enter no reason it will say Making unconstructive edits (see User:Marioguy1/Templates for more details!

Ah, okay. I see what you're saying, now. You have my support.

Most of the changes seem unnecessary to me, like the box and the change of images. --
 * Change of images? There was no image before!

It seems like a good idea Marioguy1, stops troublesome users in their path, so I guess you can have my support.

Is that block sign part of the template? If so, I'm opposing the change. The purpose of the Reminder is to make people aware of a mistake for the very first time. In most cases they don't even know that they did something wrong. It's not supposed to be a punishment. For this reason, I'm also sceptical about the smiley. He looks quite annoyed, and that's not the kind of impression a receiver of the Reminder should get. 09:37, 24 July 2009 (EDT)
 * I kind of agree with Time Q. I like how the template changed from a rather stern-looking warning sign to a smiley, but the smiley seems to be frowning down upon the user. We don't want users to be frowned upon when they make a mistake for the first time. Accidents happen. So, maybe if it had a less 'annoyed'-looking smiley -- as Time Q put it -- it would look even better. 14:39, 26 July 2009 (EDT)
