Template talk:Civil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Tagging uncivil users
The CIVIL templates have been deleted because the community agreed that the warnings didn't work and often made things worse. If someone is uncivil the wrong thing to do is tag them with a civility warning complete with stop sign. It more than often creates further bad reaction! A civility notice should only encourage people to be civil. It should remind them of actually contributing. And to reduce the problems of abuse of the template, a difference to the uncivil statement must be provided to be valid. If no diff is provided, anyone can remove the warning if they feel its so bad to be reminded in this way! (^_^) So, I'm proposing we create {{civil}} with this approach:
