Change web site -> website, more common and correct spelling and usage. 118.99.116.249 (talk) 18:34, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
Question: Where specifically is this in reference to? Only website is ever used either on the talk page or in any of the templates. Remsense ‥ 论 22:46, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Uw-spamublock is the only warning/block template I can find containing "web site". Tollens (talk) 23:07, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Well, I fixed that one then. Remsense ‥ 论 23:11, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
- Er, Remsense, the IP did specify Template:Uw-spamublock in their original post, which somebody subsequently messed with. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Uw-tilde
Should {{Uw-tilde}} be updated to include information about the reply tool? Seems like it has really caught on with the community, it signs posts for you, but it cannot be used if someone does not sign their post, so not only is there no sig but you have to open the eidting window instead of using this convenient tool, make sigs even more important than they already were.

- Just Step Sideways, feel free to add a link to it to the § See also section (which maybe would benefit from folding). Mathglot (talk) 21:46, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
Can we develop a userblock-wellknown bad faith template?
In my very brief Admin career, I've run across two users who had the name of well-known living persons and were making promotional edits for that person. Ideally, I'd give a bad-faith well-known username block notice, but the only one we have is good-faith (see the table at to see the empty table cell). Can we develop one that combines living person username confirmation requirements with disruptive/promotional editing language for hard blocks?
That is, take Template:Uw-ublock-wellknown and add bad faith/hard block language to it. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 02:35, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
- If you can edit Template:Uw-ublock-wellknown/sandbox and replace it in its entirety with the wording that you think the template ought to emit in that case in plain text format, I will attempt to help adjust the template to do so. If you want the language to come out of the existing template, we will need a new parameter to flag that; what should be call it,
|badfaith=yes? Something else? Mathglot (talk) 09:01, 11 November 2024 (UTC)- I'll do the editing later today. Thanks. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 16:12, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
