Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Hadal 16:11, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I've blocked you indefinitely for vandalism of Wikipedia. -- Hadal 18:03, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Sass. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Sass~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 02:51, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Hasselkopf

Hasselkopf is a mountain on the southern periphery of Braunlage, Germany. It is 612 m high.

The hill is mostly covered in grass and undeveloped, but its northern slope has a short ski lift and can be used for downhill skiing in the winter months.

On 7 May 1964, the hill was used by Gerhard Zucker to unsuccessfully attempt to demonstrate the use of mail rockets. One exploded in an accident, killing three.

Hermione Hannen

Hermione Hannen (26 January 1913 – 1 October 1983) was an English theatre and film actress. She was born in London, the daughter of Nicholas "Beau" Hannen, who was also an actor on the stage and in film.

Biography
Hermione Hannen was born on 26 January 1913, London.

Hannen's grandfather was Sir Nicholas John Hannen, who served as Chief Justice of the British Supreme Court for China and Japan and also as British Consul-General in Shanghai. Sir Nicholas died in office and marines from HMS Hermione (1893) served as an honour guard and pallbearers at his funeral. On her mother's side she was the grand-daughter of Sir Henry Morland, a British administrator in the Bombay Presidency of India. Through his marriage to Fanny Ellen Hannah Louisa Carandini, she was the great-grand-daughter of the opera singer, Marie Carandini. Marie was married to the Italian nobleman, Jerome Carandini, the Marquis of Sarzano, and thus Hannen was also a distant cousin of the actor Christopher Lee.

Career
Hannen trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. Her début as an actress was in Cairo in 1932 during her father's tour of the Far East and Australia. In the 1930s, she acted in numerous plays performed at the Old Vic in London, including The Voysey Inheritance, The Rivals, Man and Superman and Hamlet. She also played Ophelia in Hamlet at the Westminster Theatre in 1937 and in Silent Night at St James's.

She also performed in five films from 1935 to 1946.

During World War II, from 1940 to 1945, she was a BBC announcer, and from 1954, she broadcast regularly in plays.

Hannen also published the book The Whole Wide World Apart in 1956.

Marriages
Hannen was married twice. Her first husband was the English actor Anthony Quayle (1913–1989) and her second husband was the Welsh actor Clifford Evans (1912–1985), who survived her.

Death
Hannen died in Shrewsbury on 1 October 1983, aged 70.

Template talk:Test2

Patent nonsense
I'm not sure if linking to Patent nonsense is the best choice here since that page expressly describes a bunch of things as not being patent nonsense, but some of which probably deserve a warning like this (without necessarily escalating to test3). DopefishJustin (・∀・) 21:02, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
 * I also agree that the patent nonsense link is not the best choice for this message—it means that for most vandals the warnings should progress straight from the relatively tame to the pretty stern  . I think that having something in between these two warnings is good, but most vandalism doesn't fall into the category of patent nonsense as described by Patent nonsense.    JeremyA 03:41, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Crap! Now I have to revert that! 68.39.174.238 05:22, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Using these templates to track vandals
It would be very useful if the addition of, etc. were automatically to put the User in a category of "Vandals to be tracked", so as to generate a list of these people. What happens often enough is that the warnings are ineffectual.

I tried doing this, on the model of, but it doesn't seem to work, maybe because these are User Talk pages that  is applied to. Is this worth pursuing?

I'm posting this here as well to get maximum visibility, but please centralize responses to the Test Template Talk page.Bill 13:20, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Header
I added the header Test warn 2 to make the test distinguishable from other text on the discussion page, as well as a count for easy reference of the last test used. ∞ Who ? ¿ ? 04:20, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * It makes it look like the header is part of the article, causing what just happened, me to click "edit" and end up editing the whole template. I don't think this is useful. Maybe if it included a subst. --Golbez 05:46, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm trying a hard line and bold text for seperation. Example:

Test warn 2

∞ Who ? ¿ ? 05:56, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Changed the numbering to "type of warning". See talk on Test4 talk. ∞ Who ? ¿ ? 19:04, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

I would prefer not to have a header built into this template so that I have the option of adding one myself. I often use it with a header naming the page that was changed, so that it's not just standing out there without context on a shared ip page. FreplySpang (talk) 19:07, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

FreplySpang's example:

Your changes to Foo
Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

 * Good example. I originally had sub-headings, but found out very quickly that if you click the header edit, you are editing the template and not the user talk page, which has happened. I would say that we propose that addition to the template, but they are all used and not subst, so there will be a lot of  all over the place.  I think that it would be a good addition however.  The main thing is the seperation, about 50% of the time, I add test and have to go back and edit it becuase it blends in with all the other text.  Most anon's do not have enough discussion to have headers, so all the notes blend together. I personally make it a habit to add headers to my normal discussion, but a test tag is usually done in a hurry.   ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  19:30, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Oops, sorry. The example didn't really show the point I was trying to make. I'd rather just have the template text be "Please stop adding.... Thank you." so that I can decide which heading level works best on the talk page. I do think it's a problem that the test templates tend to get lost on anon talk pages. There's enough variation, though, that I think the person posting the test message has to take the extra moment to decide what kind of heading, horizontal line, etc. is needed. FreplySpang (talk) 21:01, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

 * No, I appologize, your example made sense, I just didn't say it the way I meant. I understand that it would interfere with adding a custom header, but thought maybe someone could have a userfied version of the template for that purpose.  I know mine could have been userfied, but since they aren't subst, with the hr, you could goto a page that currently has them and easily see the different test messages used.  It's ok though, it seems there is a dislike to the hr in general, so if it's removed thats fine.  I left more notes on Template talk:Test3 on this. Thanks for your input.   ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  21:19, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Headers revisted
This is a continuation of my previous proposal. Some users liked the hard line and/or sub-header, others didn't. There was also the bold headings. I feel I explained the reasons for adding these clearly, however some users use their own version of these templates and complained that adding a header would only mess it up. The main problem is the majority of users do not add a header or line, and do not use subst. The following is an example of what a lot of these anon talk pages look like:

End Example 1
This is riducously messy and can easily be solved with a variety of proposed additions to the templates:
 * Option 1: Add the hr or wiki equivalent to the top of the template. This will not create the easy section-editing link, however, test can still be used with or w/o subst. And still clearly divides the entries.

 * Option 2: Use sub-headings, with subst so that it doesn't create an Edit link that edits the template. If used w/o subst, and the edit link is used, it will edit the template. Ex: ==Warning==
 * Note with this option, the headings will have to have names everyone can agree on, I gave an example list on Test4. Also everyone would have to use.

 * Option 3: Use the hr with a bold heading. Same results as example 2, but with heading, see Example 4

 * Feel free to add more options.

End Examples
Yes, this is rather long, but it seemed no one bothered to look at how messy the use of these templates are. Not everyone adds a header when they use the template, and it would be much easier to ask the few who do add their own headers not too, opposed to getting the majority, including the ones who will never read the instructions on the discussion page to use subst. I invite everyone to go thru these "What links here" Test2, Test3, Test4, Test5, and see how many of them look cluttered. Please take the time to view all of the proposal and comment. Thank you. ∞ Who ? ¿ ? 08:22, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

Hostile?
Am I the only one who feels like this comes across as terribly hostile to newcomers? It might say "please" and "thank you", but it uses them in a nasty commanding fashion, like when someone tells you to "Please shut up. Thank you". I don't see the need to threaten these people, who for the most part seem to be brand new to Wikipedia and perhaps not surprisingly haven't got around to discovering the sandbox yet. Greeting people with this message doesn't seem to be establishing a terribly welcome environment, in my impression. Sarge Baldy 00:48, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree, and re-worded accordingly. Dan100 (Talk) 15:28, August 10, 2005 (UTC)

"refrain" vs "stop"
At this time, the modified template says "...please refrain from adding nonsense..." I get the impression from doing a lot of RC patrol that many casual vandals are quite young, and I wonder if they understand the word "refrain." How about "please don't add nonsense..."? Joyous (talk) 02:47, August 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * I'd much prefer this to stop, anyway. The "thank you" was also added back in, which I still read as being aggressive (especially in combination with the word "stop"). Sarge Baldy 10:01, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Auto signatures
try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Adam1213/tsandbox I have found a way of adding auto signatures!!!! Please add this to all the templates

You add to the article ```` (with shift like a signature)

You put info for future edits and follow below

—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Adam1213 (talk • contribs) 04:32, 8 October 2005  (UTC)

 * To clarify, what Adam1213 wants to add is ~ to the template, to allow it to auto sign when added. Add in your sandbox to see the example.   ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  04:53, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Unfortunately, as I explained on Adam's talk page, it's just not feasible to have auto-signatures on templates. The main problem is that it requires a change in the way users add the templates. Editors are used to signing their comments with ~ ; making the templates non-standard would be quite confusing. Also, the test templates are already transcluded on thousands of pages and a change such as auto-signature would break them. Not a bad idea in principle, but I just don't see it working out. Carbonite | Talk 04:58, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I tend to agree. I personally already have them in my Monobook.js, not that I couldnt change that, but several users have the same. I just thought I would clarify what Adam1213 was trying to say, its better for them to propose it here, rather than changing the template itself. Good attempt to improve it though, but as you said, a little hard to implement so late in the game. ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  05:30, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Well we could have a set with it like vs or vws vandalism warning with Signature. To edit the page edit sections make it easy. Or seperate template way. --  A dam1213 Talk [/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Adam1213&action=edit&section=new +] 12:31, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Alteration
It seems to me that the use of this template on shared IPs can lead to confusion. For this reason, I was thinking that rather than saying this:

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

The text should perhaps say:

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

In this way, it holds true for both the first and second vandalism, as well as any other, while still indicating to someone familiar with the templates that this is not the first time.

Additionally, the   template could also be changed to say:

Please do not vandalize Wikipedia, if you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

In the case of shared IPs I think it best to avoid using , without making sure to remove the template once it is no longer blocked.

Any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.250.61.132 (talk • contribs)

I agree, for a different reason. "Stop" is much too aggressive-sounding for this to only be 1 step above test, and test3 already starts with "please stop" so there's too much repetition between the two. "Do not" sounds much better for test2, like this:

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

Shared IPs / not biting newbies
For shared IPs, I think it might be a good idea to have an explanatory message to ensure that others using the IP don't get bitten. This could be an additional template to add at the top of the user talk page. It might be called. Here's a draft:

The idea is that this is an extra template to add the top of a user talk page when adding the usual messages, ensuring that users sharing the IP with a vandal don't feel the messages are necessarily addressed to them. For the same reason, it might be preferable to change the messages to address "this IP address" rather than "you". Thoughts? Rd232 21:20, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Hey, that's pretty spiffy. I like it. Thanks! FreplySpang (talk) 22:27, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I won't deny it looks spiffy, but I don't think we need this. Shared IPs should already be tagged with sharedip, and then there's the message at the bottom of the talk page saying multiple people could be using it. There's a limit to how much people are going to read, and to newbies the mediawiki interace is cluttered up enough as it is. I'm not sure adding another nested-tabled piece of text is going to help. --fvw *  23:55, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * SharedIP addresses itself initially to admins and is somewhat technical. The only help it offers to users is a suggestion/link to create an account. And it assumes that we know that the IP is shared, which we don't necessarily - we should be able to merely allow for the possibility eg a static IP used by several people, or which changes hands. The message at the bottom of all IP talk pages is at the bottom, long after users may have been put off by vandal-related messages addressed to someone else. It is at least friendlier than SharedIP, but still offering only the one piece of help (suggestion/link to acreate an account). Rd232 12:41, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
 * The draft could be amended in any number of ways, either to remove tables (some people don't like this, though in this context many of the usual objections don't really apply) or to revise text, but the aim is to (a) be more welcoming and helpful and (b) to do this at the top of the page, above vandal-related messages. I don't see the point about cluttering up the interface; it's only on one page - it's content. And it's designed to be skimmable. Rd232 12:41, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Changes to Test2
As is seen by the discussion at Template talk:Test, people are in favor of my recent change. Rdsmith4, you might want to reply there before reverting this time. —  BRIAN  0918 • 2005-10-30 16:17
 * Please look more carefully and discover that I made two minor changes to your wording and did not revert it to the old version. — Dan | Talk 16:35, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

Changes?
Ok, the way the template is worded now isn't nice. We already have test2a (and the whole blank2 series too, to boot) to deal with page blankers, so why did we have to introduce that to this template? It makes it sounds bloated. Can someone point me to where that was decided? I'm thinking of changing it back. Tito xd (?!? - help us) 00:22, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree. I reverted this change. Please discuss it here before making changes like this. Shanes 03:37, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Well it just got changed again. I don't like it personally; test2a or the blank templates already exist, so why change the wording for this one? Besides, adding nonsense and removing content are different things.--Shanel 01:55, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I reverted it.--Shanel 01:59, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Can we be a little more polite and add the word please to the template, to say "please use the sandbox?". --Asbl 17:16, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Adding an image
I noticed one person added an image to their own version of test2. I think I like it. I'll show the two versions:

Normally:

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

vs.

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

So I propose we add it, to here and test3. What do y'all think? -Patstuart 02:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Agree with Femto, not really necessary at this level of warning. Besides, if we want to get their attention, that's what the bright orange box is for (-:  JYolkowski // talk 22:17, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Template addition
Could someone add TestTemplatesNotice to the template (within the <noinclude> tag)? I'd do it myself, but it is protected. EVula 18:10, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Wording
With lots of time spent on RC patrol, I've always felt that the wording for test2|Article is a little odd. Saying "as you did to page" feels odd. I believe it might be more clear as "as you did to the page page" or something similar (maybe article as opposed to page). akuyume TC 02:36, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

I agree.

All that's needed is a quick tweaking of the #if clause on line 1, from: Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. to: Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia.

Should we remind people that if they want to reply they can still edit their own talk here, or would we rather not give them any ideas and leave the talk-editing for 3RR-vios and such? --fvw * 20:24, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Professional design
This template in its current format is plain, dull, ugly and fails to communicate in any effective manner. Why do some people prefer the look that suggests it was scribbled on the back of an envellope? FearÉIREANN\(caint) 05:11, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Wording
I have change the wording from 'you are welcome to come back' to 'you may come back', because the former is far too inviting. Others have observed this issue also, see User:Hephaestos. Ingoolemo  talk  06:00, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Image on this template
I've added an optional parameter to this template to make the image optional. For those that don't want to include the image with the block warning, type *, which produces:

 * You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may come back after the block expires.

The default behaviour via will be to include the image as follows:

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may come back after the block expires.

I didn't want to do anything more fancy that would increase server load, but if you can think of a way of improving this, please do so. Also please let me know if you find any problems. Thanks, JYolkowski // talk 15:39, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

From personal experience I believe it is vital to have a visual image. The reason is that when I use templates without images I notice that users seem to miss the message (or say they do) on their page, particularly if they are new to WP and have a lot of messages on their talk page. (This is particularly so when warnings are issued which lead to a block. Users often respond with a 'what the heck? Why didn't someone tell me?' response. But when I use a message with an image no-one claims not to have seen it. The graphic stands out a mile in a way a graphic-less message does not, so is unmissable and as a result achieves the point of the template, which is to tell someone to stop what they are doing. FearÉIREANN \(caint)  16:28, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
 * You likely have a point, but for those that don't want to include an image due either to dislike of the image or server and/or client load concerns (and it appears that there were several people reverting the addition of the image), this gives them the option not to include it. The default behaviour is to include the image, so the block message will still contain the image except for people who explicitly specify it.  JYolkowski // talk 16:57, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Spacing
I always have a problem with the image on this running up against images from test4 or others, and making it look bad, and propose adding a subst'd space at the top of this template. Any thaughts? — xaosflux  Talk  20:12, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * As noones has opposed, I've added this spacing, checked several talk apges that had not been subst'd and they all appear well. — xaosflux  Talk  01:21, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Why add personal attacks?
There are separate templates for that... npa5 and npa6. Plus, "personal attacks" are not considered "vandalism". – flamurai (t) 22:52, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The template includes disruption and privacy violations, and I thought they were separate to vandalism. I added it because vandals sometimes throw a few personal attacks about in between vandalism.  If you don't think it should be there, I don't mind if you remove it.  JDtalk 23:02, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Question
Does this template actually block a user? If they have the previous templates, and i post the 5th one, would they actually be blocked or not until an admin or some sort of bot came around to handle it? Cantras 06:55, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

 * It's just another notification template. Admins post it after the actual blocking process, which is usually requested at Administrator intervention against vandalism. Femto 16:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Question
Can this be used by non-sysops? Please tell me. I really need to know.Hondasaregood 15:09, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

 * There's no real point considering only sysops can block others. After a vandal has gone past test4 or bv, there's no point issuing warnings at that point. You should report them to Administrator intervention against vandalism and continue reverting all their edits until they are blocked. --  Netsnipe  ►  15:59, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

 * What about the situation where a user has been blocked, but the administrator has omitted to put anything on the user's talk page to tell them theyt've been blocked? – Tivedshambo (talk) 07:49, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

 * OF course in that situation; yes but it isn't really necessary. ~ Arjun  00:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Hm... if you take a look at the old user warnings table, Foo5 tends to be the "You've been blocked" level for most of them. I'd somewhat hesitate to change that without a larger discussion. As another option, the new template system has been in place for quite some time, now, and perhaps the time has come to redirect the old warning set to the new one. Either way, this should probably be discussed (if you just wanted to move this template, here is fine, if people don't show up or if you wanted more changes, there's always the village pump). – [[User:Luna Santin| Luna Santin (talk) 19:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure if I recall for sure, but I seem to remember some arguments over this sort of thing (whether to have a shiny image, also whether to have an image at all), mainly concerning a diversity of opinion as to whether glitzy block templates encourage people who're looking for a reaction -- I haven't kept track of things too closely, though. For what it's worth, other related block templates I've checked (3rr5, npa5, gblock, and so on) seem to use the image you've linked. Although blp3 looks to match the currently used image, here. If we take consistency to imply consensus (which doesn't seem like a bad approach), the shiny image appears more frequently used. – Luna Santin  (talk) 20:57, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Using these templates to track vandals
It would be very useful if the addition of, etc. were automatically to put the User in a category of "Vandals to be tracked", so as to generate a list of these people. What happens often enough is that the warnings are ineffectual.

I tried doing this, on the model of, but it doesn't seem to work, maybe because these are User Talk pages that  is applied to. Is this worth pursuing?

I'm posting this here as well to get maximum visibility, but please centralize responses to the Test Template Talk page.Bill 13:21, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Header
I added the header Test warn 3 to make the test distinguishable from other text on the discussion page, as well as a count for easy reference of the last test used. ∞ Who ? ¿ ? 04:21, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

Header caused problems with editing. I'm trying a hard line and bold text for seperation. Example:

Test warn 3

∞ Who ? ¿ ? 05:59, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

I must say, I did know which testn was which just off by heart... Dan100 (Talk) 16:31, July 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * But having seen how they stack up on a talk page, I think it's rather good. Dan100 (Talk) 16:45, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

 * I think most users know them by heart, but they get blended in with other discussion text to easily. This makes them much easier to see and know where exactly the warnings stand.  I also change the numbering to "types of warning".   ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  19:03, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * But sometimes it's necessary to leap straight in with a '3', particularly if the user has a history. Also the discontinue warning header didn't make a lot of sense, and was confusing.  What do you mean by "discontinue warning"? -- Francs2000 | Talk [[Image:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|25px|  ]] 20:20, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Ah, having looked at test2 I see what you mean. The problem is that a lot of editors leap straight from "test" to "test3", because "test2" is specifically about nonsense and the user may not be about that.  Also to have four test messages means that if you are tailing the same editor on the same article, you have to break the 3 revert rule before you can block the editor from vandalising the article: I normally block on the third edit because by that time the user generally knows that they're vandalising rather than testing.  If I hade to wait around for another warning, I am putting myself up for criticism from vandals who know about the 3RR for breaking it myself.  Hence missing out the second warning.  Hope that sort of makes sense. -- Francs2000 | Talk [[Image:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|25px|  ]] 20:25, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Yep perfect sense. Discontinue is an overview of what the template says.
 * Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
 * I think what you added is sufficient though. I'm done with changing them further, I appreciate everyones comments, and hope that everyone is fine with the hr, if not thats ok too. Thanks.   ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  20:33, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Yeah I took that out because you put it in after the ':' so it didn't work properly. Feel free to add it back. -- Francs2000 | Talk [[Image:Flag of the United Kingdom.svg|25px|  ]] 20:47, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Please see updated proposal on Test 2 talk. ∞ Who ? ¿ ?  08:25, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

Sandbox link.
I removed the Sandbox link from the Template. My feeling is that by the time youre using this Template, the edits in question are beyond the stage of potential tests, that's what test1 is for, so by this time there's not as much point having the Sandbox link.

Alteration
Please see Alteration.

Will or may?
I know we need to be forceful, but saying "you will be blocked from editing" can be misleading if it is not applied by an Admin. If a non-Admin uses this message, doesn't it seem like they would be imitating an Admin (a definite no-no)? Because a non-Admin user cannot block them, so there is no guarantee they will be blocked. Thoughts? -- LV (Dark Mark)  21:43, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

 * True, but the whole point of the notice is to get the vandal to stop. We want to sound as forceful as possible by the time we reach test3. The notice doesn't specify that the editor leaving the message will be the one doing the blocking, simply that continued vandalism will result in blocking (which it usually does). Offhand, I can't remember any non-admins being censured for leaving a test message.  Carbonite | Talk 22:49, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Okay, I was just curious. Thanks. -- LV (Dark Mark)  23:03, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Too many vandals are not heeding this warning. Perhaps we can replace it with a message that attempts to be more persuasive. A proposed replacement is at template:test3b, which I am currently using.  Wh e  re  (talk) 21:34, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Change template
No editor would vandalize. Template user needs to be more honest with self. Just disagrees with the other editor. Foundation could be sue for libel if vandalism acusations are made. Here's a better idea for this template:

I disagree with your edit. Please discuss your edit on the article's talk page:

--Chuck Marean 04:26, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think Wikimedia could be sued for libel for accusing people of vandalism since, almost all of the time, people who do not work for the wikipedia foundation use this template (Wikimedia has only 3 paid employees). In addition, this template is generally used for obvious vandalism. It would be odd if this template was used after a person, for instance, added profanity to the article. -- Where 05:24, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

 * While I do not know about the Hitler anecdote, looking back, I would agree with you that it is not productive to call vandals "vandals." The link to Vandalism does not help the vandals at all. How about the following:

Please stop. If you continue to make non-constructive edits, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

or perhaps:

We beg you to stop ruining the hard work of others. Wikipedia is used as a reference by many people, and your vandalism can greatly inconvenience other people.

Will Harridge

William Harridge (October 16, 1883 – April 9, 1971) was an American executive in professional baseball whose most significant role was as president of the American League (AL) from 1931 to 1959. Harridge, who was formative in creating the Baseball All Star Game in 1933, was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee in 1972.

Early life and career
Will Harridge was born in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. He worked as a railway ticket clerk before being hired in 1911 as the personal secretary to Ban Johnson, president of baseball's American League.

Baseball career
In 1927, Harridge became the American League secretary. He then became president of the American League in 1931, held that post until his retirement in 1958, and then was named president emeritus. At that point the league office was moved to Boston, and Harridge was allowed to keep the Chicago office as well as act as custodian of the American League archive correspondence.

Harridge faced some criticism for his involvement in allowing Arnold Johnson, a business associate of New York Yankees owners Dan Topping and Del Webb, to purchase the Philadelphia Athletics and move them to Kansas City rather than allow local owners to purchase the team and keep it in Philadelphia. He is also criticized by some for his then "non-involvement" in turning a blind eye to the control that the Yankees had over Johnson and the A's.

Harridge often cited a 1932 incident as his most difficult decision in baseball. During a July 4 game between the New York Yankees and Washington Senators, a collision occurred at home plate involving Senators outfielder Carl Reynolds and Yankees catcher Bill Dickey. Dickey dropped the ball, but chased down Reynolds and punched him, resulting in a broken jaw. Though Dickey was a star player with the most powerful franchise in baseball, Harridge issued him a $1,000 fine and a thirty-day suspension.

He is more widely known for a ruling that he made in 1951 when dwarf Eddie Gaedel signed a contract with Bill Veeck's St. Louis Browns. Gaedel registered one career plate appearance in August of that year, earning a walk on four straight pitches. Harridge decided that Veeck was making a mockery of baseball and cancelled Gaedel's contract the next day.

Later life

In 1967, Harridge was driving through Wilmette when he struck and killed architect Barry Byrne of Evanston. Harridge was neither ticketed nor charged in the accident.

Death
Harridge died at age 87 in Evanston, Illinois, and is interred in Memorial Park in Skokie.

Legacy
The American League Championship Series winner's trophy is named the William Harridge Trophy in his honor.

Over–under

An over–under or over/under (O/U) bet is a wager in which a sportsbook will predict a number for a statistic in a given game and bettors wager that the actual number in the game will be either higher or lower than that number. One of the most commonly used statistics is the combined total score of the two teams, and for this reason the wager is also known as the total.

For example, in Super Bowl XXXIX, most Las Vegas casinos set the over–under for the score of the game at 46.0. A bettor could wager that the combined score of the two teams would be either more than or less than that number. Since the combined score of that game was 45, anyone who had bet on "under" won. The bet is called a push if the actual number exactly equals the over-under, in which case all bets are refunded.

Dice
A variant of over-under betting, known as Under Over, is a dice game played at various festivals. The object of the game is to predict whether the dice will roll to a total of under 7, over 7, or at 7. The game is typically played with 2 dice.

A player typically places a wager on one of three spaces. These spaces are:

 * Under 7 (usually pays 1–1)
 * Over 7 (usually pays 1–1)
 * 7 (usually pays 4–1)

For instance, if one bets one dollar on under and the dealer rolls under, they gain a dollar as well as get their dollar back. If the dealer rolls a seven and one bets on it, they make four dollars. Once all the bets have been placed the attendant closes the betting board with a screen and then puts the dice through the chute. Players then get paid accordingly.

One variation of Under Over involves foam dice, two of which are thrown in the middle of the players; in another variation, two balls are thrown into a giant wheel consisting of twelve spaces of numbers ranging from 1–6. No wire fence is used to block the bets in that case.

Certhia

 Certhia  is the genus of birds containing the typical treecreepers, which together with the African and Indian spotted creepers make up the family Certhiidae.

The typical treecreepers occur in many wooded parts of the North Temperate Zone. They do not normally migrate other than for local movements, such as altitudinal migrations in the Himalayan species.

The treecreepers are small woodland birds, very similar in appearance (so they can present serious identification problems where two species occur together). They are brown with streaks above and white below. They have thin pointed down-curved bills, which they use to extricate insects from bark. They have stiff, pointed tail feathers, like woodpeckers and woodcreepers, which they use to support themselves on vertical trees. All the tail feathers but the two central ones are molted in quick succession; the two central ones are not molted till the others grow back, so the bird can always prop itself with its tail.

They build cup nests on loose twig platforms wedged behind patches of bark on tree trunks. (They will also use special nest boxes clamped to tree trunks and made with two openings; the birds use one as an entrance and one as an exit.) They lay 3 to 9 eggs (usually 5 or 6), which are white with reddish-brown speckles and dots. The female incubates for 14 or 15 days. The young fledge 15 or 16 days later; the male may care for them while the female incubates and feeds a second brood. Rarely a male may mate with a second female while the first is incubating, and there are even records of two females incubating their clutches side by side in a nest.

At least some species roost in small oblong cavities that they dig out behind loose bark. They may roost individually or in groups (probably families) that in extreme cold have been known to exceed 12 birds.

Taxonomy
The genus Certhia was introduced in 1758 by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in the tenth edition of his Systema Naturae. The genus name is from the Ancient Greek κερθιος/kerthios, a small insectivorous bird that lived in trees mentioned by Aristotle, perhaps a treecreeper. The type species is the Eurasian treecreeper (Certhia familiaris).

Species
Based on studies of cytochrome b mtDNA sequence and song structure,  the following nine species are recognized:

 * Eurasian treecreeper, Certhia familiaris
 * Hodgson's treecreeper, Certhia hodgsoni (split from C. familiaris)
 * Brown creeper, Certhia americana
 * Short-toed treecreeper, Certhia brachydactyla
 * Bar-tailed treecreeper, Certhia himalayana
 * Rusty-flanked treecreeper, Certhia nipalensis
 * Sikkim treecreeper, Certhia discolor
 * Hume's treecreeper, Certhia manipurensis (split from C. discolor)
 * Sichuan treecreeper, Certhia tianquanensis

They form two evolutionary lineages: the former four species represent a Holarctic radiation, whereas the remaining five are distributed in the area south and east of the Himalaya. Hodgson's treecreeper, recently realized to be a distinct species, is an offshoot of the common treecreeper's ancestor which has speciated south of the Himalaya. The former group has a more warbling song, always (except in C. familiaris from China) starting or ending with a shrill sreeh. The Himalayan group, in contrast, has a faster-paced trill without the sreeh sound.

Blair Atcheynum

Blair Michael Atcheynum (born April 20, 1969) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey right winger. Atcheynum from Sweetgrass First Nation is of Cree descent.

Playing career
Atcheynum was selected in the third round, 52nd overall, by the Hartford Whalers in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft after scoring 70 goals in 71 games with the Moose Jaw Warriors of the Western Hockey League during the 1988–89 season. He never reached the NHL with the Whalers and was later claimed by the new Ottawa Senators in the 1992 NHL Expansion Draft.

He spent the majority of his career in the minor leagues but was able to break into the NHL for a total of 196 games over four seasons. He got his first taste of the NHL during the 1992–93 NHL season when he played four games for the Ottawa Senators, although he spent the majority of the season with their farm team, the New Haven Senators of the American Hockey League. It would take another four years to make it as a regular in the NHL. He played in 61 games (scoring a respectable 11 goals and 15 assists) during the 1997–98 NHL season for the St. Louis Blues after signing with the team as a free agent. The main reasoning behind Atcheynum being called up to the Blues during this period was due to the lack of depth on their roster early on in the 1997-98 season. With St. Louis, Atcheynum would typically play on a line with Craig Conroy and Scott Pellerin that was fondly referred to as the "CPA Line". Blues general manager Larry Pleau was impressed by Atcheynum's hard work, saying "Blair's not a player in the bottom third of our roster. He's one of our first nine forwards. He can move up to the first or second line without missing a step if we need him".

The next year he was selected in the 1998 NHL Expansion Draft by the newly formed Nashville Predators. He played 53 games with the Predators before being traded back to St. Louis for a sixth-round draft pick in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft. In 1999 he was signed as a free agent by the Chicago Blackhawks, with whom he played 66 games between 1999 and 2001. Atcheynum retired as a professional hockey player in 2001.

Atcheynum is currently an assistant coach with the Battlefords North Stars of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League Atcheynum is said to have been taking major strides with the North Stars program, as reports show that locals describe the North Stars level of play as "fast and intelligent hockey, free of buffoonery of the goon hockey that many people detest". He was also most recently honoured at the 2012 First Nation Games, alongside Fred Sasakamoose, who was the first treaty Indian to play in the NHL. Atcheynum and Sasakamoose were recognized as role models at both the summer and winter games as hope for young First Nations athletes.

Jackie Baillie

Dame Jacqueline Marie Baillie (' Barnes'''; born 15 January 1964) is a Scottish politician who has served as Deputy Leader of the Scottish Labour Party since 2020. She has been Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) for the Dumbarton constituency since 1999. She also served as acting Leader of the Scottish Labour Party in 2017 and again in 2021.

Born in British Hong Kong, Baillie was educated at St Anne's School, Windermere before studying at Cumbernauld College and the University of Strathclyde. After working in local government, she was elected at the 1999 Scottish Parliament election and served in the Scottish Executive as Minister for Social Justice under Henry McLeish. In December 2014, she was appointed as Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Finance, Constitution and Economy; later Economy, Jobs and Fair Work.

After Kezia Dugdale resigned as Leader of the Scottish Labour Party and acting leader Alex Rowley was suspended, Baillie served as acting leader until Richard Leonard was elected as Scottish Labour leader in 2017. She was sacked by Leonard as economy spokesperson in October 2018, who also replaced her in the role. After she was elected Deputy Leader of the Scottish Labour Party, Leonard reappointed Baillie to his Shadow Cabinet as Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Finance in April 2020. She again served as acting Scottish Labour leader for six weeks following Leonard's resignation in January 2021 and has been described by journalist Alex Massie as someone "who both loves to wind-up the SNP and is good at it".

Early life and career
Baillie was born on 15 January 1964 in British Hong Kong to Sophie and Frank Barnes. Her mother is Scottish and her father Portuguese. After education at the private St Anne's School, Windermere in the Lake District, she studied at Cumbernauld College and the University of Strathclyde. She went on to work as a resource centre manager at Strathkelvin District Council and a community economic development manager at East Dunbartonshire Council.

Scottish Executive: 1999–2007
Baillie was chair of Scottish Labour in 1997. She was first elected at the inaugural election for the Scottish Parliament in May 1999. A member of the Scottish Executive, she served as Minister for Social Justice when Henry McLeish was First Minister of Scotland, during which time she was involved with the Homelessness Task Force. She was re-elected in 2003 and became a member of the Scottish Parliament's Justice 2 Committee and Public Petitions Committee. She supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

Opposition: 2007–2020
In December 2007, Baillie defended Labour leader Wendy Alexander on Newsnight Scotland, during the controversy regarding alleged illegal donations to Alexander's leadership campaign.

In 2009, Baillie successfully brought into being an act of the Scottish Parliament, with the unanimous support of all MSPs, to allow for greater protection of disabled parking spaces.

Baillie has opposed minimum pricing of alcohol, being unconvinced about the overall benefits. In 2010, she stated it would not be the best way of tackling the country's alcohol-related problems but instead backed a tax-based alternative amongst other measures. The legislation was passed setting a minimum unit pricing floor price for a unit of alcohol of 50 pence per unit.

Baillie held the position of Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Health in the Shadow Cabinet of Iain Gray, retaining the post in December 2011 following the election of Johann Lamont as Gray's successor. When Lamont announced a major shakeup of the Labour frontbench team on 28 June 2013, Baillie was moved from Health to Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Social Justice and Welfare.

On 27 March 2014, Baillie stood in for Johann Lamont at First Minister's Questions while Lamont was attending the funeral of veteran Labour politician Tony Benn. She also stood in at FMQs following Lamont's resignation as Labour leader in October 2014. Baillie ruled herself out of standing in the leadership election that followed Lamont's departure, stating that she wanted a "supporting role" rather than to be Labour leader.

As a backbench MSP, Baillie campaigned for a public inquiry into a lethal outbreak of Clostridium difficile colitis at the Vale of Leven Hospital in her constituency. The inquiry into the outbreak cost £10 million, while the families were offered £1 million, something which prompted Baillie to plead Health Secretary Shona Robison for greater compensation for those affected, during a session of the Scottish Parliament in November 2014.

In December 2017, Baillie was reduced to tears when raising the concern of fire safety following the deaths of two men in the Cameron House Hotel Fire.

After Kezia Dugdale resigned as Scottish Labour leader in August 2017 and interim leader Alex Rowley was suspended, Baillie served as acting leader until Richard Leonard was elected as the new leader following the 2017 Scottish Labour leadership election. Baillie continued to serve as Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Economy, Jobs and Fair Work until October 2018 when she was sacked by Leonard, who also replaced her in the role.

Deputy Leader of the Scottish Labour Party: 2020–present
In January 2020, Baillie announced that she would be standing as a candidate for the post of Deputy Leader of the Scottish Labour Party. On 3 April, it was announced she had won the contest by 10,311 votes to Matt Kerr's 7,528 votes. After she was elected, Leonard reappointed her to his frontbench as Scottish Labour Spokesperson for Finance. She served as acting Leader of the Scottish Labour Party since after the resignation of Leonard on 14 January 2021 and served until the election of Anas Sarwar as leader.

On 1 March 2021, Baillie was moved from shadowing Finance to Health, Social Care and Equalities.

Between 2020 and 2021, Baillie was a member of Committee on the Scottish Government Handling of Harassment Complaints that concluded that the Scottish Government's handling of harassment complaints against Alex Salmond was "seriously flawed". As a committee member, Baillie quizzed both Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon, asking the latter: "You have described these errors as catastrophic. That's a strong word, tell me why then nobody has resigned? Nobody has taken responsibility of this, because at the heart of this two women have been let down." Former BBC journalist Andrew Neil said of Baillie's questioning, "As a professional interviewer... there were many times when I thought Jackie Baillie was the only one that knew the questions to ask."

On 19 March 2021, the findings of the committee were pre-emptively leaked to the media by an MSP. Baillie backed an inquiry into the leak and said: "The leaks against the women were particularly bad, because they had the bravery to come forward to speak to the committee. It was entirely inappropriate that that information was leaked to the public domain."

In the run up to the 2021 Scottish Parliament election, former SNP Depute Leader Jim Sillars donated £2,000 to her campaign to be re-elected. “I would prefer her in the parliament to a clone on the backbenches," Sillars said. "I don’t think there is any doubt she is an asset to the parliament. My concern, in donating to Jackie Baillie, was to have a very able person in parliament."

Ballie was re-elected in May 2021 with an increased majority of 1,483, with Dumbarton becoming the only seat to have voted Labour for the entirety of the devolved era. After her victory, she told her constituents: "You want a recovery, not a referendum. You want us to prioritise your jobs, the economy, the NHS. You want us to make sure that our kids at school have all the opportunities they deserve. I pledge to you that I will do that in this next parliament."

Baillie was appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the 2023 Birthday Honours for political and public service.

Personal life
Baillie married Stephen Baillie in 1982. They are now divorced. She lives in Dumbarton with her daughter. During her time as MSP, she studied for a Master of Science degree in Local Economic Development at the University of Glasgow.

XEG-AM

XEG-AM (1050 kHz) is a Class A clear channel radio station in Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico. Its transmitter is in Guadalupe, Nuevo León. XEG was known as a border blaster in the 1950s, 60s and 70s. It now uses the name La Ranchera de Monterrey and broadcasts a Classic Ranchera radio format.

XEG is one of a handful of North American AM stations to broadcast at 100,000 watts around the clock. No commercial AM stations in the U.S. or Canada run more than 50,000 watts. XEG is non-directional at night but uses a directional antenna by day.

History
XEG received its concession on February 21, 1944. In 1950, the advertising time on XEG came under the control of Harold Schwartz of Chicago who also came to represent co-owned XERB 1090 AM in Tijuana/Rosarito, Baja California, the station made famous in the movie American Graffiti.

During the mid- and late 1970s, XEG (then at 150 kW power, directional north) was known for its nighttime English-language R&B/Soul music shows. For 4–6 hours per night, taped transcriptions from KGFJ (Los Angeles) disc jockeys made specifically for XEG were audible throughout much of the Southern, Southwestern and Midwestern U.S.

In the late 1970s, XEG's powerful nighttime signal attracted several U.S. ministries, including Billy James Hargis. But between programs, commercials occasionally offered suspicious-sounding medicines which promised to "cure cancer" and other illnesses. By 1982, XEG was known as "The Golden Gospel Giant".

The XEG mailing address announced on the air was antiquated: "Post Office Box 28, St. Louis, 66, Missouri." This was more than a decade after ZIP codes were introduced across the U.S. As of November 2014, QSL (reception report) cards were still mailed out from St. Louis.

AM radio waves are of a much lower acoustical quality than FM, but during hours of darkness the Earth’s ionosphere drops sharply, typically from an altitude of roughly 600 miles to 30 miles, and the much longer wave length of the AM transmissions causes them to be refracted off of that lowered layer so that they “skip” back to ground level several hundred miles away. Accordingly, that causes the border blaster stations like XEG to be valuable as a commercial advertising medium far from their transmitters on the south side of the US border. Depending on atmospheric conditions, multiple skips can result in acceptable night time AM reception as far north as Canada.

This is all rubbish. The annoyomous user added these phrases, ARVUMI is the changma word for Bandorbon (Bandarban) Hill District, a part of KORPOS MOHOL (KARPAS MAHAL)., which is nothing more than some nonsense. I think that the page should be deleted. -Mr Tan 12.27, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment: Bandorbon and Korpos Mohol indicate they're parts of the Chittagong area, a major metropolitan area of Bangladesh. This is not nonsense; it just needs explanation and wikification.

HemisFair Arena

HemisFair Arena (also known as the San Antonio Convention Center Arena) was an indoor arena located in San Antonio, Texas. It was home to the ABA/NBA's San Antonio Spurs from 1973 to 1993 and the San Antonio Force of the AFL during the 1992 season, their only year of existence. The Houston Rockets also played home games at the arena during the 1972-73 NBA season.

Construction
The arena was originally built as part of (and named for) the 1968 HemisFair. The facility was located in Downtown San Antonio near the Tower of the Americas, one of the most recognizable landmarks in the city. HemisFair Arena and the Tower of the Americas were constructed by a joint venture of two contractors—Lyda Inc. of San Antonio and H. A. Lott, Inc. of Houston.

As home of the San Antonio Spurs
The arena initially held 10,146 fans for basketball. The San Antonio Spurs of the American Basketball Association moved to the arena after the Dallas Chaparrals relocated following the 1972–73 ABA season. The February 1974 arrival of Hall of Famer George Gervin helped transform the franchise. The Spurs were such a success as an ABA franchise that they became one of four ABA franchises absorbed into the NBA following the ABA-NBA merger in 1976.

The Spurs played their first game at the arena on October 10, 1973, losing to the San Diego Conquistadors 121-106 in front of 5,879. Throughout its lifespan, it was considered one of the loudest arenas in the NBA. As Spurs games began regularly selling out, new seating was added in 1978 by raising the roof of the arena, allowing the construction of an upper deck, increasing the capacity to more than 16,000. While the renovation boosted capacity, it did result in a large number of obstructed view seats in the lower levels due to the support beams required for the upper deck. In 1986, the White Way Sign/Sony JumboTron center-hung video scoreboard was introduced, remaining at the arena for the rest of its life. It was the first center-mounted arena JumboTron in existence.

Final events
HemisFair Arena was torn down in 1995, two years after the Spurs moved to the Alamodome in 1993. The last Spurs game at HemisFair Arena took place May 20, 1993, when the Spurs lost to the Phoenix Suns in Game 6 the Western Conference semifinals in the 1993 NBA Playoffs on a last-second jump shot by league MVP Charles Barkley. The last ticketed event to be held at the facility was a Van Halen concert March 25, 1995. The last event at HemisFair Arena was a graduation for a local high school, Thomas Jefferson High School, on May 30, 1995. The site is now the location of an expansion to the adjacent Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center.

Seating Capacity
The seating capacity for basketball was:
