Your contributions history shows that you have been aggressively cross-posting in order to influence {{{1}}}. Although the Arbitration Committee has ruled that "[t]he occasional light use of cross-posting to talk pages is part of Wikipedia's common practice"¹, such cross-posting should adhere to specific guidelines. In the past, aggressively worded cross-posting has contributed towards an Arbitration Committee ruling of disruptive behavior that resulted in blocking². It is best not to game the system, and instead respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building, by ceasing to further crosspost, and instead allowing the process to reflect the opinions of editors that were already actively involved in the matter at hand. Thank you.

Template usage notes See documentation. Most test(n) templates take a single optional parameter: the name of the page to which the template applies. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning. test5 optionally takes two parameters: The first is the duration of the block (with "temporarily blocked" as the default if a specific period is not provided). The second is the name of the page to which the template applies. If provided, this page will be cited in the warning. Please refer to the index of test templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending. Please remember to substitute the template—use {{subst:Canvass}} rather than {{Canvass}}.
