::That happens to everyone; it only becomes a problem when someone ''always'' edits like that.

:That's a level of flaming, as in making derogatory comments toward another user(s). Life threatening would be an immediate block, but it's not something we really need to clarify. Should be a given. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:46, November 22, 2019 (EST) | |||
==Expand Parts of the Warning Policy (specifically the lists of offenses)== | |||

{{ProposalOutcome|failed|1-5|Failed}} | |||
Ok, so I've been looking at this wiki, and there's one thing that kinda annoys me. Why do people get reminded, warned, and even blocked for not signing comments, even though this isn't part of the "Level 1 offenses"? I feel like blocking a good-faith user over forgetting to sign talk page comments is a bit absurd. (Assume said user has mostly made contributive and productive edits, like fixing typos in an article or asking for help when needed.) If a user gets warned for something that's not even in the Warning Policy to begin with (and FYI, forgetting to sign comments is not discourteous behavior), it seems unfair to give a user a reminder for an offense that does not seem to be reminder worthy, at least if the warning policy doesn't say that it's an offense. | |||
That being said, I did notice that only admins can edit the warning policy. Since I can't edit it, I'm going to see how this proposal goes. | |||
'''Proposer''': {{User|Mari0fan100}}<br> | |||
'''Deadline''': <del>September 18, 2022, 23:59 GMT</del> Extended to September 25, 2022, 23:59 GMT | |||
===Support=== | |||
#{{User|Mari0fan100}} Per proposal. | |||
===Oppose=== | |||
#{{User|Wikiboy10}} Look, I hate getting warned too but it's worth it. I've done some dumb stuff and I should be called out for it. | |||
#{{User|Swallow}} This proposal does not have a clear enough goal. As I said in the comments, the title and reasoning are very contradictory. | |||
#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} See comments | |||
#{{User|Hewer}} Per all, this proposal is too unclear. | |||
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Per all. | |||
===Comments=== | |||
Is the goal of this proposal specifically to stop people from getting warned for signing comments then? If so, the proposal title is very misleading. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 21:24, September 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
:The goal of this proposal is to expand which offenses are warnable, and forgetting to sign comments would be a "Level one offense" if this proposal passes. Of course, users would get an informal reminder before getting an official reminder about it. [[User:Mari0fan100|Mari0fan100]] ([[User talk:Mari0fan100|talk]]) 23:01, September 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
::The reasoning of the proposal makes it look like you're trying to do the opposite of that, so I think there needs to be some rewording done. {{User:Swallow/sig}} 08:40, September 5, 2022 (EDT) | |||
Don't we have [[MarioWiki:Don't shoot your foot off]] to address this sort of gap in warning policy? {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 23:16, September 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
BTW I don't think this will be an effective proposal. There's no clear goals to be made here. All this proposal to me seems like it's just pointing out potential issues with our warning and blocking policies but not really going into what can be done to solve this aside from suggesting we expand the policy page to encompass more infractions. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 23:19, September 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
Also make sure you list the proposal in [[MarioWiki:Proposals]]. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 20:58, September 7, 2022 (EDT) | |||
I agree with Bazooka Mario. We don't know what other things you want to be enforced by the warning policy. For all we know, the "Leaving an unsigned comment when a signature is required" offense is the ''only'' offense you want to actually add on the list (in which case, I would personally just go notify an admin about it before starting any proposal). Are there any other offenses you want to be added? Is there anything else regarding the warning policy you'd want to be changed (which offenses need to be changed, moved to which level, or deleted; how the procedure would go, etc.)? If you don't know anything else to be added or changed, then why bother with the proposal? Just ask an admin about the "Leaving an unsigned comment when a signature is required" offense and why it's not on the list of offenses.<br>Oh, and for the record, I could've sworn that the "Leaving an unsigned comment when a signature is required" offense actually ''was'' listed somewhere, but I guess I was wrong about that. {{User:Arend/sig}} 10:04, September 9, 2022 (EDT) | |||
== In case of improper usage of template? == | |||
What warnings do users receive in case of misuse of reminder template? Improper issuing of a template without knowledge that it is misuse. [[User:Windy|Windy]] ([[User talk:Windy|talk]]) 17:26, July 14, 2023 (EDT) | |||
