Template talk:Last warning
Can you really state the reason a last warning is issued?
{{lastwarn|2=insulting other users}} (Just an example)
Now let's see what it looks like.
Doesn't work.

It doesn't work. The example doesn't even work (even with that "g" removed). Someone should fix this.
What really sucks is that I can't fix this! >X(
{{lastwarng|2=inserting false information on [[page]]}}
Seriously? That g at the end of lastwarn? It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:50, 29 March 2011 (EDT)
I think it is saying "last warning"
- See, if I included that "g", the template doesn't even show up.
{{lastwarng|2=inserting false information on [[page]]}}
Instead ^this^ crops up. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 19:25, 29 March 2011 (EDT)
Shouldn't it say the way you have been on the template instead of in any way?Mr Man 14:10, 30 October 2011 (EDT)
- "In any way" refers to any, even very small, infraction of the rules, so there's the reason for the "no".

- Per this -- and to clarify, this is mainly telling the offending user who committed a major breach of the rules that they are walking on thin ice; if they committ one more screw-up, those of us who are admins will be forced to take action (via handing out blocks against those who need to be held accountable). --M.

Warning Policy link
The link needs to have the capitalization removed so it goes to the right section (same for Template:Userspace, Template:Reminder and Template:Warning). Niiue (talk) 02:32, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
The Lastwarn template
Im the only editor that lives in Israel, the Hand means hello in my region, so can ya'll make region specific Lastwarn Templates? TabuuandPeach 18:10, 6 May 2016 (EDT)
- That is not necessary. We can't make little changes because it might mean something else in other regions. Heck, in Greece, I believe it's considered disrespectful to show an open palm. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 18:27, 6 May 2016 (EDT)
Well People in the Middle East like me say that an open palm means hello. And they may break the rules again if they got a Last Warning. I think it should be replaced with a stop sign, us in the Middle East knows a stop sign means like the back of their hands. TabuuandPeach 21:02, 6 May 2016 (EDT)
- This template is only meant to warn users for breaking the rules, and as Bazooka Mario said, will not be tailored to different users' views, so please stop. If we did that then there would be at least a hundred different versions of the same template. Also the image is more of an aesthetic; the text is what matters and if users can get the point, regardless of what they interpret the image as, it's all that's needed.-- ( • ) 22:33, 6 May 2016 (EDT)
@Driftmaster130 and @Roy Koopa, im trying to say that it shoulc be replaced with a Stop Sign and nothing else. TabuuandPeach 00:15, 7 May 2016 (EDT)
- It won't be replaced. The text makes it quite evident what this wants to achieve. --™ The 'Shroom 00:28, 7 May 2016 (EDT)
Reasons
I see this has been discussed before, but why isn't a reason necessary with this warning template? I made a test draft here which allows users to add a reason for issuing the last warning (the last sentence is optional; if they don't specify a reason it will read like how it is now, similar to how a regular {{warning}} does without an input).-- ( • ) 12:44, 4 June 2016 (EDT)
