Talk_Bubble_Legend_zpsa9c4698c.png There's something that I've been curious about for a little while, but it's never been that big a deal so I let it go. If someone is vandalizing pages I know the right thing to do would be to tell a staff member, but even so I've seen some users using Warning Templates. Are the Warning Templates just for staff members or can normal users use them if necessary?

I've seen some not-staff people, including me, using those warning templates, so I believe everybody may use them.

TALK -
As I understand it, any editor can warn another editor. However, only official warnings from a mod or admin count towards a block or ban.

Honestly, I've seen them abused in the past, and I would personally prefer if non-mods would just state their objection (politely and impassionately), rather than using the template. It doesn't look good if we have multiple editors jumping on a new editor for the same mistake, and using unprofessional warning reasons.

What Kryten said. It's actually been a small issue in the past. Especially when it comes to new editors, be polite and err on the side of "honest mistake". If those "honest mistakes" keep happening, it's time to call in a staff member to help.

Keyblade-Blk.png To make this official, I am going to add this to the template pages for the warning templates: A warning template should only be used by staff members; other editors should simply state their objection in a polite matter on the offending editor's talk page.

If there are any objections to this, please state them in this forum thread.
