RuneScape:Requests for deletion/Template:Test4

Template:Test4
This is what the Test 4 template looks like:

Final Warning This is your final warning. The next time you make an unconstructive edit to a page, as you did to (page name), you will be blocked from editing the RuneScape Wiki.

I personally dislike this template because of its limited usefulness. If this template is used too much, I fear that we will be sending a wrong message to vandals. I think that nonsysops and sysops alike should be very careful in their use of this template, and should use it extremely sparingly. The reason for this is that there is no way to guarantee that the vandal will be blocked on the next edit. For nonsysops, they can stick this on the vandal's talk all right, but what if the sysop that sees the IP vandal next happens to believe that a block is not yet justified? The same thing goes for sysops, in the event that a different sysop sees the next bit of vandalism from that particular IP.

If that is the case, and the IP is not blocked after this template is used, then we would be sending a message to vandals that we don't actually keep our word. This is not the message that we want to send, as it will only encourage them to vandalize further. The fact that the "will" is emphasized so strongly doesn't really help.

Its use could easily be replaced by Test3, which also uses some strong language, but does not place a guarantee on when the block would occur. This would eliminate the problem of our possible infidelity. Because of its limited usefulness and potential harm, I'd like to delete this template. 02:56, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
